About This Book
Kim Edwards's stunning family drama evokes the spirit of Sue Miller and
Alice Sebold, articulating every mother's silent fear: what would happen
if you lost your child and she grew up without you? In 1964, when a
blizzard forces Dr. David Henry to deliver his own twins, he immediately
recognizes that one of them has Down Syndrome and makes a split-second
decision that will haunt all their lives forever. He asks his nurse to
take the baby away to an institution and to keep her birth a secret.
Instead, she disappears into another city to raise the child as her own.
Compulsively readable and deeply moving, The Memory Keeper's Daughter is
an astonishing tale of redemptive love. BACKCOVER: "Edwards is a born
