Summary
The story of John Merrick, the Elephant Man, and of his triumph over his terrible affliction is a story of life and the affirmation of life; it is an exultation of the humanity of a man trapped inside the twisted, lesion-ridden grip of a terminally disfiguring disease. John Merrick is a man with many admirers, beginning with the witty and beautiful actress Mrs. Kendal, who was so taken with Merrick that she brought a who's who of English society to visit him regularly
