Author of "The Miracle Worker", William Gibson turns once again to those two extraordinary women, Helen Keller & Ann Sullivan. The story has Keller, now a 26-year-old honors student at Radcliffe and Ann Sullivan 37 years of age sharing the joys of accomplishment, the long, slow process of self-awareness and the love that binds these two strong women through their own private struggles. This is also a love story between Ann & John Macy, a young editor who worked on Helen's autiobiography and stayed to marry Ann. It is also a love that threatened to tear apart the bond these two women had. Helen, jealous, lonely and frightened of abandonment, and Annie, torn between the love for John and her devotion to the young woman that she virtually created. An emotion-charged, profound, rewarding book.
