Description

She used to be a beautiful doelike child, with an intense, graceful fragility. In her first year, she picked up words, smiled and laughed, and learned to walk. But then Anne-Marie started to turn inward. And when her little girl lost one of the words she had acquired, cried inconsolably, and showed little interest in someone around her, Catherine Maurice took her to doctors who gave her a devastating diagnosis: autism.
In their desperate struggle to save their daughter, the Maurices plunged into a medical nightmare of false hopes, “miracle cures,” and infuriating suggestions that Anne-Marie’s autism used to be come what may their fault. After all, Anne-Marie used to be saved by an intensive behavioral therapy.
Let Me Hear Your Voice is a mother’s illuminating account of how one circle of relatives triumphed over autism. It is a completely unforgettable book, as beautifully written as it is informative.
