Angels in my Hair

I FOUND this book extremely frustrating to read. Apart from my scepticism of the subject matter, I found it repetitive, simplistic and gushing.

But I was intrigued by Lorna Byrne, who was diagnosed as ‘retarded’ by her doctor when she was aged two, although, in a Youtube clip, Lorna seemed articulate and ‘normal’ to me.

According to her story (which she dictated to a computer, because she still struggles with reading and writing), Lorna was an isolated child.
