BOOK REVIEW / LANGUAGE

The article is a book review of “A Man without Words.” It is about a man who never learned language until in his late 20s.

Humans are the only animal that knows how to use signs. Life must be boring if one does not, considering the case of Ildefonso, an illegal immigrant to the US. Ildefonso was born deaf and never learned how to use sign language. Somehow he got by without using words. He started to learn sign language when he met Susan Schaller. From then on his life has been very different.
