The last thing Piedro remembers is diving into the lake on his day off from
work. Now he lies in a hospital bed with a wheelchair at his side. Casting a
shadow from the doorway, his caretaker remarks on "how quickly one gets used to
this kind of thing," as she goes on to empty his catheter bag and to help him
into his wheelchair.
Piedro must now deal with a growing mix of fear and
powerlessness that surges within him as he realizes that he will be paralyzed
forever; it bursts forth like a twister, "over and over again," until he resigns
himself to it. In time, Piedro's feelings of hopelessness are offset by the
realization that he can find both love and a degree of independence. With the
support of his family and friends, he makes his way through rehab and finally
gets back to the business of living.
Based on his own experiences, Roland
Burkart's Twister is a realistic and uplifting narrative that will resonate with
anyone who has ever experienced or borne witness to a life upended by calamity.
