Interesting Story,
By
This review is from: Story Of Esther Costello (Paperback)
I saw the movie based on this book when I was a kid. I enjoyed the movie, and was very glad to get the book. The story brings up many interesting issues with regards to people with disabilities, especially hysterically induced disabilities which may be spontaneously reversed at some point. The issues here include exploitation of the handicapped, how this affects the relationships between the disabled and their caretakers, and the psychology of the caretakers themselves. A very interesting study in dependency, charity, exploitation, and the relationships between caretakers and those taken care of.
