Say hello to James, an American, born and raised in Dubai. His controlling father beats him as a child, causing him to stammer, which worsens with age. This book narrates his life journey from infancy to adulthood with his family, his friends, his love, his depression, and most of all his battle with stammer. It not only demonstrates the external effects of stammering, but also highlights how something so trivial can make life miserable, scarring beyond repair - something the world doesn't quite realize. For instance, James is afraid to buy medicines from a chemist as he prefers to be sick rather than embarrassed. Imagine such a life on a daily basis. So enter the mind of a stammerer and see the world through his eyes. Welcome to the roller coaster world of James!
