Muncie, Indiana, 1955. Beverly Vance loves her six-year-old son Keller fiercely, even as his disability tests her marriage, isolates her from neighbors, and exhausts her strength. When a violent tantrum leaves Beverly injured and pregnant, her husband makes a desperate decision that sends Keller to a bleak state institution. A tender, heartbreaking novel about parenting a special-needs child in an era of ignorance—and a mother's determination to reclaim her son and prove what perfect love really looks like.
- A mother's fierce fight to keep her son when 1950s society said 'send him away.'
- Based on the author's real experience raising two sons on the autism spectrum.
- A window into the bleak world of 1950s state institutions—and one family's refusal to accept it.
- Perfect for readers who love emotionally powerful, clean historical family fiction.
“there are no fairy-tale endings, just fairy-tale moments”
Perfect for a reader who loves emotionally rich 1950s-set family fiction, especially parents, grandparents, or anyone touched by autism or disability who wants a heartfelt story about a mother's fierce love.
