Description
When she was 19 months old, Helen Keller suffered from a severe illness that left her blind and deaf. Soon, she also became mute. Her firm struggle to beat these handicaps, with the support of her inspired teacher, Anne Sullivan, is one of the extraordinary stories of human courage and commitment. In this classic autobiography, which was first published in 1903, Miss Keller describes the initial 22 years of her life, including the magical moments at the water pump while remembering the connection between "water" and the cold liquid flowing over her hand. She understood that objects have names. Various other aspects of Helen Keller's life are described here in clear, straightforward prose with wonderful imaginative presentations. This extremely moving memoir offers an unforgettable representation of one of the outstanding women of the 20th century.
