- Summary:
- "Special Education is a new teacher's journey to understanding herself, her students, and her world through the hard lessons her work life offers up. Questions of identity, failure, family, and connection surface as Mar's primary speaker (a queer, neurotypical, Asian American woman) navigates the shifting divides of race, class, gender, and disability through poetry"-- Provided by publisher.
