Аудиокнига «Far From the Tree. Parents, Children, and the Struggle to Accept Difference» by Andrew Solomon 'Far From the Tree' is the acclaimed New York Times bestseller by clinical psychologist, Andrew Solomon, about parents' boundless love for impossible children.

Solomon's scope-expanding survey explores the bond between parents who believe they can love their child, despite overwhelming differences in appearance, sensory ability, or mental or emotional development. From hearing children with disabilities to children born as a result of violence, he follows these extraordinary families as they simultaneously grapple with their unique challenges, yet still desire and work to support one another through the ups and downs of being a family. Powerful and insightful, 'Far from the Tree ’ is an extraordinary portrait of how extraordinary individuals succeed when they seem to have made no headway.

This insightful and witty audiobook features hundreds of interviews conducted over ten years by Solomon with parents and other loved ones from 340 families who have taken courage to embrace, raise, or simply be there for a loved one who differs widely from the norm. Through candid, engaging stories, Solomon reveals how the quality of the bonds formed between main characters more often than not proves what counts as 'extraordinary': accepting the unique gravitational pull, vulnerabilities, and gifts that accompany one kind of difference. Chronological, nonlinear, selective, sympathetic, and sometimes irreverent, this narrative enriches the annals of humanity and devoid of reserve or praise, reveals that where love and mercy meet, nearly any departure from what is considered normal can lead to incredible, beautiful stories, touching even the most cynical heart.
