Book Talk - Two Lives, Two Books- Moy Moy's Circle and LifeQuake

The Office of Accessible Education under Dean, Diversity & Inclusion, invites the IITD community to a Book Talk on 15th April 2026, Wednesday that brings together two deeply moving narratives on resilience, disability, and the power of human connection.
The session will feature a discussion around the following books:
Moy Moy’s Circle: A True Story of Love, Disability, and the World We Can Build Together by Suchitra Shenoy
When Jo Chopra McGowan, an American woman living in India, adopts baby Moy Moy—born with multiple disabilities and given little chance of survival—she could not have foreseen how completely their lives would transform. This powerful narrative reflects the resilience of the human spirit, showing how care can be an act of courage, dignity a fundamental right, and hope—when paired with determination—can create quiet yet profound change.
Lifequake: A Story of Hope and Humanity by Tarini Mohan
This memoir traces a young woman’s journey after a life-altering accident leaves her with permanent disabilities. Through her path of recovery and reinvention, she navigates identity, relationships, and purpose, supported by a diverse community that helps her rebuild her life across continents.
