Coles The Red Coat: A Memoir of Blindness at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
This profoundly moving memoir tells the story of a brave resilient girl with a range of disabilities - including losing her sight at the age of nine - who goes on to lead a life of outstanding achievement and fulfilment.
We follow Lucy Holland (the name Elisabeth Standen gives herself in the memoir) through times of fear and sorrow to moments of pride, celebration and joy. She endures a lot, both as a result of her disabilities and because of the attitudes of some people around her, but she also encounters kindness and understanding in her determination to forge her own path and to achieve all that she is capable of.
An inspiring story and an enduring testament to one woman's courage and tenacity.
With an introduction by Elisabeth's sister, Gwynneth Shakespeare.
