Far From The Tree
Andrew Solomon“...a brave, beautiful book that will expand your humanity...” - People
In Far from the Tree, Andrew Solomon tells the stories of parents who not only learn to deal with their exceptional children but also find profound meaning in doing so. Solomon’s startling proposition is that diversity is what unites us all. He writes about families coping with deafness, dwarfism, Down syndrome, autism, schizophrenia, and multiple severe disabilities, with children who are prodigies, who are conceived in rape, who become criminals, or who are transgender. While each of these characteristics is potentially isolating, the experience of difference within families is universal, as are the triumphs of love Solomon documents in every chapter. Elegantly reported by a spectacularly original and compassionate thinker, Far from the Tree explores how people who love each other must struggle to accept each other — a theme in every family’s life.
"Far from the Tree is a landmark, revolutionary book. It frames an area of inquiry - the difference between parents and children - that many of us have experienced in our own lives without ever considering it as a phenomenon. Andrew Solomon plumbs his topic thoroughly, humanely, and in a compulsively readable style that makes the book as entertaining as it is illuminating." - Jennifer Egan, author of A Visit From The Goon Squad
