oliviak07 's review for:
The Story of My Life
by Helen Keller, Frances Cassidy
As an American Sign Language, Interpreting student, Helen Keller is not far from discussion when the manual alphabet comes into the conversation. While I thought I knew what there was to know about one of history's more hopeful and inspiring figures, I was sadly wrong. But in the style of Helen herself, I forgave and moved forward.
Based on her own words Helen was more than the face of the Deaf and Blind population, she was a poet, a sportsman, a scientist, a polyglot, and a determined woman in all she faced. Although her relationship with A.G. Bell was not what I was expecting, her overall story and appreciation for all the lessons and people in her life was inspiring enough to apply those thoughts and feelings to my own.
I would recommend using the audiobook, if able, in order to hear the beauty in each description and adjective used to describe each and every person, place, and thing!
