Published in 1903, The Story of My Life is Helen Keller’s autobiography recounting her childhood, her relationship with her teacher Anne Sullivan, and her emergence into language and learning despite being deaf and blind from infancy. Keller writes with grace and intellectual joy about the moment she understood that everything has a name — one of the most celebrated passages in American memoir.
A profound testament to the human capacity for growth, connection, and resilience, the book has inspired readers around the world for over a century. Download the free public-domain EPUB — including her letters and supplementary material — at Better Gutenberg.
