04.02: Jane Kirkpatrick

2013-03-15 00:36:39| Powells Books Events Calendar

Born to an unavailable mother and an abusive father, Dorothea Dix longs simply to protect and care for her younger brothers. But at just 14, she is separated from them. Lonely and uncertain, Dorothea discovers that she does not possess the ability to accept the social expectations imposed on her gender and she desires to accomplish something more. In One Glorious Ambition (Waterbrook Press), Jane Kirkpatrick brings nineteenth-century historical reformer Dorothea Dix to life, combining historical accuracy with the gripping narrative of a woman who recognized suffering when others turned away, and the call she heeded to change the world.
