Light in My Darkness is a 1960 revision of the book My Religion by Helen Keller, which was originally published in 1927, when Keller was forty-seven years old. It is a kind of "spiritual memoir" describing her connection to the teachings of Emanuel Swedenborg. Readers were divided by those impressed by her faith and those disappointed that the famous deafblind activist advocated Swedenborgianism rather than a more "mainstream" religion.
