Christy Brown was born with cerebral palsy and severe physical
disability. He grew up to become a brilliantly imaginative and
sensitive writer who would take his place among the giants of Irish
literature.
This autobiography, published in 1954 when he was twenty-two, recounts
his early life in Dublin – the poverty of his childhood, the support of
his mother and his hope for a better life. Above all it describes his
struggle to learn to read, write, paint and finally type, all with the
toe of his left foot. Warm, honest and inspiring, this is a unique and
captivating story of disability told by an extraordinary man.
