It’s the 1950’s in Jackson, Ind., a young woman named Elizabeth Willow, exposed to polio as an infant, uses a wheelchair and wears leg braces and feels bound by those elements of her life. She is a wonderfully bright and capable girl, but that potential is unseen by many. Adults pity her; children fear her and the few people who are willing to allow Elizabeth in their lives keep her at arm’s length, anxious at what others may think. The account of the agonies inflicted on this young girl growing up in a small—and small-minded—Indiana town are vivid and deeply affecting.
