The Silent Twins - Now a major motion picture starring Letitia Wright (Paperback, New Ed)

June and Jennifer Gibbons were identical twins. Their resistance to all communication except with each other defeated family, schools, psychologists and remedial homes. They were able to survive neither together nor apart. Wallace tells their remarkable story. (Kirkus UK)

This is the astonishing tale of June and Jennifer Gibbons, identical twins whose silent, antisocial exterior hid a rich, vast, creative life. From their early childhood through their twenties, they spoke only to each other in a secret language, building an elaborated fantasy life. From their self-imposed isolation, they were catapuled into the hormonal havoc of adolescence - plunging into a wild spree that ultimately led to their incarceration in a hospital for the criminally insane.
