Title

Sea Glass Island by Sherryl Woods (MIRA Books, 2013)

Description

In the novel Sea Glass Island, we encounter the love interest of the protaonist who has some makings of a good disabled doctor representation in literature but it still has a long way to go. The doctor, who was disabled in a war zone is kind and generous and works tirelessly for disabled children but is closed off emotionally due to his disability and associated trauma. As a result, even though we see some multidimensionality here, it still plays on tropes of disabled person as saint and disabled person as tortured by their disability.
