Elephant Man by Christine Sparks
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
What a sad life experience. I'm glad Mr. Merrick good some light, love and peace in his life. It was beautiful, better than I expected with the book being based on a movie (though based on real life) and the emotions and experiences of Mr. Merrick and the doctor were well expressed. It made me feel sad, brought tears to my eyes during the horrible moments and i felt with Mr. Merrick - his terror, sadness and fear but also the small, or for him, big joys he got - his books, portraits, everyday things. I felt so happy with his experience at the theatre, how he was hooked and so into the play he watched and how happy he was.
A beautiful tale of friendship and how we should enjoy the life to its fullest, even those things that seems so small and unimportant.
