I'm drawn by media featuring stuttering. One of my favourite novels, for example, is Black Swan Green by David Mitchell, a book about a 13-year-old boy growing up in 80s Britain and who suffers a stutter. It captures wonderfully the silent struggle, the desperate attempts to conceal a condition. I'm not a stutterer myself, but expressing myself verbally has always been challenging, so I can empathise with at least some of the difficulties those who stutter face. Being able to speak fluently and easily is precious.
