The World I Live In
by Helen Keller
Helen Keller's most personally and intellectually adventurous work is one that changes our appreciation for her extraordinary achievements. Here, this pre-talented deaf and blind young woman, while closely identifying her emotions and the work of her imagination, makes a vowel argument that all emotions are available to her through the medium of speech. Queuing up for the works of Emerson and Thoreau, "The World I Live In" is a highly thought-provoking exercise in self-invention and a true, rediscovered classic of American literature.
