description: This compelling novel examines the lives of two deaf women as they come of age during the era of World War II. Friends since childhood, Jeanette and Maria share in their struggle for independence and validation in a world that often mocks their deafness. Readers will easily relate to these two characters as they deal with traumatic and personal challenges that ultimately transform their lives. The "hill" becomes an important symbol throughout the story. At first it is a refuge for the girls and later serves as a place of healing, separation, reconciliation, and finality. "Go To The Hill" reflects the true resilience and strength of the human spirit. Readers will find themselves lodged in the memory of "the hill" long after the book is closed.
