Life Dreams: The Poems Of A Blighted Life (1913)

Blind, deaf, and mute from a young age, Mathilde's life was one of struggle and isolation. Yet, through her poetry, she was able to express her deepest thoughts and emotions. Life Dreams is a collection of her poems, each one a window into her world of darkness and silence. From the longing for human connection to the beauty of nature, Mathilde's words are both haunting and inspiring.
