Negative Positive
Title: excellent book, wishing for a sequel
Review: I'd heard of the Hollys' story, but was never able to locate a print copy of What Love Sees, and I was very pleased to find it available for Kindle. Basically, this is the true story of Forrest and Jean Holly, both of whom are blind. They marry, and have four children. Forrest works to support his family and ends up with his own successful business and Jean (who was raised with live in servants) manages a household on a California ranch in the 1940s and 50's. Reading about the struggles that they faced and how determined they were to lead a "normal" life never feels "inspirational" or preachy, but gives the reader excellent insight into the Hollys' life. The story ends when the youngest child is about seven and the family moves to a larger city. I would really like to know what happened to the family after the move, and am hoping that a sequel or interview with the surviving family members may become available.
