The Memory Keeper's Daughter

Kim Edwards The Memory Keeper's Daughter ..story of a father, a doctor who in an emergency had to assist his wife's delivery and gives away his daughter because she was a Downs Syndrome baby and lies to his wife that the baby was born dead and only the boy baby one of the twin survived.

A heart rending story so non judgement in it's narrative that your sympathies are with all the characters.Each of them from their perspective did what they did for the sake of other's .I was torn between the characters.Emotionally draining yet gripping . It haunts you long after having read it. Brings out the different shades of grey in human character not just the black and white.
