About this listen

 Dawn, also known in England as Keith’s Dark Tower, is a poignant tale set against the backdrop of World War I. The story follows Keith Burton, a young man facing the heartbreaking challenge of going blind. As he navigates this difficult journey, both he and his family grapple with the myriad ways to cope with his condition—exploring themes of resilience, morality, and the human spirit. Ultimately, Keith discovers a newfound sense of pride and purpose in his efforts to support blind soldiers. Written by Eleanor H. Porter, renowned for her beloved children’s books and novels, including the Pollyanna and Miss Billy series, this powerful narrative is a testament to perseverance and empathy.
