Easy Beauty

by Chloé Cooper Jones

In 'Easy Beauty,' Chloé Cooper Jones offers a searing exploration of her life with a visible disability—sacral agenesis—sharing how the perceptions of others shaped her existence. The book transcends memoir, invoking philosophical musings on aesthetics and ethics as Jones deftly examines the cultural constructs of beauty and worth. Facing motherhood, she embarks on a transformative global journey, challenging societal norms and reinventing her understanding of self and otherness. This poignant narrative demands a reevaluation of the gaze that judges and defines, proposing a more inclusive way of seeing.
