内容説明
Named a Best Book of the Year by "Salon" magazine and "The Philadelphia Inquirer, A Slant of Sun" was praised for its incandescent prose about the experience of loving a child who brings tremendous frustration and incalculable rewards and for its extraordinary resonance. Like Operating Instructions and "The Liars' Club, A Slant of Sun" is a contemporary classic.<p>Nearly one in five children grow up facing a developmental or behavioral challenge, and like them, Beth Kephart's son, Jeremy, showed early signs of being different: language eluded him, he preferred playing alone to an afternoon on the jungle gym. Doctors diagnosed Jeremy with a mild form of autism called Pervasive Developmental Disorder Not Otherwise Specified. A "Slant of Sun" is a passionate memoir about how Kephart, guided by the twin tools of intuition and imagination, helped lead her son toward wholeness. Pulsing with the questions, "Is normal possible? Definable?" "A Slant of Sun" speaks to everyone not just parents of the redemptive power of love.
