Why read it?
1 author picked The World I Live in and Optimism as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I think Helen Keller is one of the most fascinating and brilliant individuals in human history. In this book, she shows and tells us what it is like to be a person who cannot see, hear, or speak. I find the book quite moving. Some readers will be familiar with the biopics that have been made about Heller. Take my word these movies don’t offer the pleasure of reading Keller’s story.
From Jeffery's list on blindness.
