Описание: Victoria Freeman was only four when her parents followed medical advice and sent her sister away to a distant, overcrowded institution. Martha was not yet two, but in the 1960s there was little community acceptance or support-for raising children with intellectual disabilities at home. In this frank and moving memoir, Victoria describes growing up-in a world that excluded and dehumanized her sister, and how society’s insistence that only a “normal” life was worth-living affected her sister, her family, and herself, until changing attitudes to disability and difference offered both sisters-new possibilities for healing and self-discovery.
