What You See When You Can't See

About What You See When You Can’t See

A deeply touching and uplifting view of the world through different eyes, and a roadmap to finding bliss in the simplest of things.

Zena Cooper lives a full life, in which she uses her senses to examine and explore the world around her. She does all that without one thing many of us take for granted: sight.

Born with Marfan syndrome, a connective tissue disorder that means she is almost completely blind, Zena kept the extent of her condition hidden from the world for four decades. That was until Munch – a guide dog full of personality – took up residence in her life and, almost overnight, a disability she had been hiding for years was suddenly clear for all to see.

What You See When You Can’t See follows Zena’s journey in accepting her limitations. A qualified integrative counsellor, she shares her unique model to reset negative thought patterns, along with tools to help anyone reshape their narrative. Zena asks her readers to find beauty in their own adversity. With Munch at the heart of her experience, this book explores the possibility of an amplified life, no matter your circumstances.
