At the upcoming book festival at Printers Row in Chicago, Linda Dezenski's book “Persistence: Living an Authentic Life with a Disability” will be exhibited by the self-publishing and book marketing company ReadersMagnet. The event will take place in Chicago's historic Printing House Row District on September 6-7, 2025.
“Persistence” by Linda Dezenski is a moving autobiography that asks readers to experience life from the perspective of someone who was born with cerebral palsy. More than a story of physical challenge, this inspiring work explores what it means to find fulfillment, joy, and authenticity in a world that often misjudges disability.
Dezenski provides an insight into her daily triumphs and resilient spirit through open observations and intensely personal disclosures. She talks about how difficult it is to deal with a body that doesn't cooperate and a society that puts obstacles in her way, both visible and invisible. In a flash of insight, however, she accepts her reality and reframes her disability as a component of a meaningful life rather than a limitation.
This compelling memoir is not only for those within the disability community but for anyone seeking perspective, encouragement, and understanding. Dezenski's narrative questions social norms and promotes the value of self-reliance, acceptance of oneself, and civil rights. It serves as a timely reminder that individuals with disabilities are thriving with their voice, vision, and worth.
Attendees of the book fest at Printers Row can visit the ReadersMagnet exhibit to check out the display for “Persistence: Living an Authentic Life with a Disability.”
“Persistence” – a testament to courage, clarity, and the beauty of living true to oneself. Order a copy today on Amazon and Barnes & Noble. Learn more about Linda Dezenski and her mission at www.lindadezenski.com.
