The Reverse Rett Podcast5 Elo 2021

Ep 23 Victoria Scott

If you were offered a chance to cure your child's disease, would you take it?

Not a question we have to think very hard about at Reverse Rett, but this is the fundamental question that underpins Victoria Scott's new novel, 'Patience' which is published today August 5th 2021 by Head of Zeus.

I was grateful to have the opportunity to interview Victoria on this episode of the podcast to talk all about Patience; why she wrote this story, how she wrote it and about the characters we get to know throughout. We also talked about Victoria's very personal experience of having a sister with Rett Syndrome herself, and everything that experience contributed to this extraordinary novel.

Prior to publication, 'Patience' has already been very widely acclaimed. At Reverse Rett, we are keen to support this work which we hope will infuse a better understanding of Rett Syndrome, disability, love and family in and amongst the wider population.

Thank you so much to Victoria for taking the time to speak with me on the podcast. As always, please let us know what you think by leaving a review and hitting subscribe.

You can order Patience from Waterstones, on Amazon including Kindle - or at your local bookshop. Thanks for listening!
