Essential reading for students in Deaf Studies programs or students in Interpreter Training Programs for the Deaf By Amazon Customer This is a story of intrigue, temptation, dysfunctional families, mystery and redemption. Of pasts being exposed and righting wrongs. This story is instructive, entertaining, and quite suspenseful in its focus on an unsolved murder of a young deaf girl and a small rural community grappling with its shameful past."Backspace" is a provocative read which invites layer upon layer of insights into the world of deafness. But, it is more than just a mystery. Foremost, it is a story that dispels many myths and shines a light on many universal truths about people who are deaf. As a baby boomer raised by deaf parents who came of age in the 1940's, I can relate to the story quite intimately--the story resonated with me in many ways as I, too, am an interpreter for the deaf. One of the characters in this story, an interpreter for the deaf, adds another dimension; having a protagonist, the intense doctoral student who is deaf and the earnest interpreter--both characters crucial to the outcome of the unsolved murder. The fabric of deaf life is one that is truly unique and this e-novella explores the issues of deafness throughout the story. The advent of hearing aids, assistive listening devices, e.g. fire alarm, nightstand clocks with lights, etc. are explored and they weave their way into the story to introduce readers to these important technological advances in the lives of persons who are deaf. "Backspace" is a term eloquently introduced by Dr. Steve Baldwin that explains how visual acuity is highly developed among deaf persons and this cannot be overstated. I will forever be impacted by this phenomenon of peripheral space magnification that deaf people naturally possess. Without reservation, I recommend this e-novella highly and would relish to see this become a movie in the Stanley Gardner tradition with all of its pivots and twists. An excellent read!Jennifer Berg, CSC, Level V Interpreter-Texas.

BaldwinAs an avid reader of novels, but a reluctant writer of such, I found Baldwin’s foray into fiction writing may easily inspire other novices to dive into the world of writing. Generally, I will read the first few pages to determine whether or not to stay with it; if there isnt a “hook” I don’t read the rest of it. This one did indeed hook me to the very end. Baldwin’s organization of the story was a clever combination of introducing common beliefs or practices within the deaf community along with a story line that manages to hold the reader’s interest throughout the book.Compared to previous deaf fiction writers’ attempts to publish their work, Baldwin has done a masterful job of setting the right examples to follow for aspiring deaf writers. Baldwin’s novella is a tapestry of a sequence of storytelling with true facts that are practiced or or observed throughout the culture of the deaf community. While the deaf reader is bound to delight in reading this novel, the true test is whether or not the non-deaf community will find it equally compelling; I believe it is. As for the final guess as to the guilty suspect in this “whodunit” novel, I blew it and guessed wrong. Author Baldwin scores big here and more power to him in his future novels. I would hope he will develop into a deaf writer who is not stuck into only a genre of deaf character-led novels, but novels that any reader would become captivated to the end of every story.I give this a 4.5 star rating, as Baldwin has to be motivated to write another book. Kudos, sir.Timothy A. Jaech, retired deaf educator and columnist
