23. Disability and Representation in Keith Banner’s
“The Wedding of Tom to Tom”
by Amanda Grace Gorman

24. A student named Amanda Grace Gorman in the ENGL 375A2
DISABILITY AND LITERATURE class at the University of Mary
Washington in Virginia wrote a paper about my story. . . I read it
yesterday and burst into tears. I've been writing now for
25 years or so, and have had reviews in the New York Times, Village
Voice, Boston Globe, Publisher's Weekly, and blurbs from famous
writers and editors who say my stuff is great, etc., but this was the first
time I cried reading something somebody wrote about my fiction. I
think it has something to do with the no-
nonsense connections Amanda has made with
what I write and the way people with
developmental disabilities are perceived and
relegated. It also has something to do with her sympathetic yet
strategic way of reading my story. There's a moral code Amanda is
targeting and she finds it in my work: what an incredible gift to me as
a writer.

29. They seem very distracting and even
hinder the views of the
structures/monuments themselves.
The ads. . .seem to be quite obtrusive.
I was in disgusted shock when I first
saw that massive ad covering such a
beautiful building.

Without sponsorship of the restoration project through
temporary advertising these wonderful, historic
buildings would not survive for future generations to
enjoy as you are doing now. Have any of your
readers personally contributed to the up keep of
Venice and its buildings?

His firm is to be applauded for supporting restoration;
perhaps future ad campaigns could be more subtle
Show some sensitivity to the spirit of Venice; return
to the trompe l’oeil images and place banner like ads
along the bottom (side if you must).
