Pages : 65
Book Description
The story of the fraught, symbiotic relationship between Keller and the tempestuous and flamboyant Anne Sullivan. While their emotional bond was deep and abiding, their views and values were poles apart. Where Keller was idealistic - a socialist and suffragette - Sullivan was pessimistic and conservative. The lasting impression is that of Keller's unrealised longing for independence.
