What is Blind Rage : Letters to Helen Keller about?

As A Young Blind Girl, Georgina Kleege Repeatedly Heard The Refrain, Why Can't You Be More Like Helen Keller? Kleege's Resentment Culminates In Her Book Blind Rage: Letters To Helen Keller, An Ingenious Examination Of The Life Of This Renowned International Figure Using 21st-century Sensibilities. Kleege's Absorption With Keller Originated As An Angry Response To The Ideal Of A Secular Saint, Which No Real Blind Or Deaf Person Could Ever Emulate. However, Her Investigation Into The Genuine Person Revealed That A Much More Complex Set Of Characters And Circumstances Shaped Keller's Life. Blind Rage Employs An Adroit Form Of Creative Nonfiction To Review The Critical Junctures In Keller's Life. The Simple Facts About Helen Keller Are Well-known: How Anne Sullivan Taught Her Deaf-blind Pupil To Communicate And Learn; Her Impressive Career As A Radcliffe Graduate And Author; Her Countless Public Appearances In Various Venues, From Cinema To Vaudeville, To Campaigns For The American Foundation For The Blind. But Kleege Delves Below The Surface To Question The Perfection Of This Image. Through The Device Of Her Letters, She Challenges Keller To Reveal Her Actual Emotions, The Real Nature
