Children of a Lesser God

"She is the most mysterious, independent, beautiful, angry person he has ever met. He is the first man who has ever gotten close enough to love her."

Starting his new job as an instructor at a New England school for the deaf, James Leeds meets Sarah Norman, a young deaf woman who works at the school as a member of the custodial staff. In spite of Sarah's withdrawn emotional state, a romance slowly develops between the pair.
