'Tommy Can You Hear Me?'
Author: Ginny Lewis
Novel ISBN: 978-1-4357-1404-5 |
| Book description: 'Tommy appears in the kitchen doorway, wild eyed and earnest. "I'm going to the river to drown myself," he says loudly for all to hear. Then he runs out the door, heading for the Ohio. I watch as his white T-shirt moves away from me, ahead of me, to go before, only this time I do not trail behind. I let him go.'
What drove Tommy to this desperate act? Why did he want to die? In this riveting fictional drama Lewis weaves the story of Tommy’s life, his journey into schizophrenia and his ultimate suicide. Based on her own life and that of her older brother, the saga begins with two toddlers whose lives are drastically altered when they are taken to Saint John's Orphanage, where they and their siblings spend the next four months and ends 23 years later, with the Lewis family dealing with the suicide of one of their own.
