It is a great book. It is wonderful story alerting the hearing world to what a deaf person has to deal with--and we are not very accommodating. As a son, Myron, was a jewel and became the ears for his parents. The story is also heartwarming as the father/son relationship narrated here is unique in every way. The responsibility of Myron in this family was beyond imagination--he was the ears for his parents and the caretaker of his brother for many years. It was great to see the umbilical cord cut when he went off to college and experienced life on his own. A good read for everyone. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A page turner! *by P***T on Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2009* If I were a really brave person, I would use the video review and sign it in ASL. But I leave the signing to Myron Uhlberg and especially his description of his father and mother.I devoured this Kindle edition in 2 days and thought it was excellent. First of all for the Kindle version, the images (which are often missing in many Kindle books) are superbly done (kudos to Bantam E-Books! for attempting to make the images sharp and clear and to provide them for the reader!).Uhlberg is a born story-teller and gets the gift naturally from his father. This is really a love story - Kudos to him for having his online book previews presented with him reading (in a tiny window at the bottom of the screen) while an interpreter tells the story in ASL (American Sign Language).Anyone interested in Deaf studies, CODA (Children of Deaf Adults), ASL, growing up in the Depression era in Brooklyn and learning how a silent world can be filled with the sounds of love and happiness owes it to themselves to read this book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Completely facinating *by L***R on Reviewed in the United States on February 26, 2009* I just put my kindle down and all I can say is wow. The author does an incredible job of describing the descriptive nature of sign language. It makes me want to relearn the language I love so much. He describes in vivid detail the signs and the images they evoke. I am not one for memoirs, but this one was everything I could ask for in one.I can picture his father sitting at the table making paper hats from the New York Post every night and dancing with his Mother Sarah. I can picture Irwin sluggishly moving thru life and the feeling of your parents using you because they have no other option.The love in this book is nearly overwhelming - from the initial lack from their parents and then the author fills in the blanks from stories told so beautifully its as if you can see them playing before you in your own kitchen.I wish I could read more books that have a soul like this one. Read this one for the story, enjoy the sign language, and laugh and cry along the way! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/8180528-hands-of-my-father-a-hearing-boy-his-deaf-parents](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/8180528-hands-of-my-father-a-hearing-boy-his-deaf-parents) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-05-25*
