an account of life with sun allergy
From the hot experience of sizzling skin to some dark truths about quiet isolation, Sara reveals the long held story of her chronic allergy to sunlight that has kept her indoors - during daylight hours - for most of her adult life. "Hello Sunshine" is the story of one woman navigating the particularities of living life in the shade.
