| The inspiring account of Helen Keller’s triumph over deafness and blindness, and a testament to the power of an indomitable will An American classic rediscovered by each generation and popularized by the stage play and movie The Miracle Worker, Helen Keller’s story has become a symbol of hope for people all over the world. Published when Keller was only twenty-two, The Story of My Life portrays the wild child who is locked in the dark and silent prison of her own body. With an extraordinary immediacy, Keller reveals her frustrations and rage, and takes the reader on the unforgettable journey of her education and breakthroughs into the world of communication. From the moment Keller recognizes the word “water” when her teacher, Anne Sullivan, finger-spells the letters, we share her triumph as “that living word awakened my soul, gave it light, hope, joy, set it free!” The Story of My Life remains startlingly fresh and vital more than a century after its first publication, an unparalleled chronicle of courage and determination. |
