The Memory Keeper's Daughter

The Memory Keeper's Daughter by Kim Edwards — paperback, Penguin Books. #1 New York Times bestseller. A novel.

It begins on a winter night in 1964, when a blizzard forces Dr. David Henry to deliver his own twins. His son is born first and perfectly healthy — but the doctor immediately recognises that his daughter has Down syndrome. For motives he tells himself are good, he asks his nurse, Caroline, to take the baby away to an institution. Instead, she disappears into another city to raise the child as her own. What follows is a compulsively readable, deeply moving story of parallel lives, familial secrets, and the redemptive power of love.

Sue Monk Kidd (The Secret Life of Bees): "Absolutely mesmerizing." Jodi Picoult: "Crafted with language so lovely you have to reread the passages just to be captivated all over again... simply a beautiful book." Also praised by Luanne Rice, The Washington Post and the Chicago Tribune.
