Learning to Stutter

Description

Kenneth Kocher seems to have it all—a good heart, a sense of humor, decent looks, and lots of money. What he doesn’t have is something most of us take for granted—freedom of speech. Kenneth lives with a severe stutter which has wreaked havoc on his life since childhood.

After much embarrassment, pain, and soul-searching, Kenneth realizes that to free his inner self, he must accept the fact that he cannot be cured and he must learn to stutter with grace. Along the way he meets another stutterer and a young widow who are both dealing with the stumbling block in their own lives.

Using an experimental syntax to portray the neurological component of the syndrome, the novel gives the reader a unique view of stuttering from the inside out.
