The answer to this question is beyond the purview of the text. One needs a deep understanding of the powers of the human mind. Heller Keller developed immense powers by using her focus and concentration. While reading the novel, one often wonders how Helen could describe her experiences so vividly in spite of the loss of her hearing and seeing senses! Even those with eyes and ears cannot describe as beautifully as she has done. Her unique power of vivid description is perceptible almost everywhere in the novel. Helen keeps amazing the readers whatever she describes. Be it her childhood pranks with Martha Washington, or her state like a rudderless ship in the mist of the sea before the arrival of Miss Sullivan, or the description of her pain during the Frost King incident or her elation at the World Fair, she creates a perfect image by her power to describe her experiences. One just wonders, how Helen, who was deprived of the power of seeing and hearing, could delineate so beautifully the happenings, occurrences, and the natural phenomena, which the normal people with eyes and ears fail to put in words.
Well, the answer to this question is she developed the powers of her mind to that level, where her inner mind functioned as outer sense organs. Her imaginative and visualization ability became so advanced that she could see and hear things happening around her. Her sense of touch complemented her imagination and visualization further. Besides, whatever was left uncomprehended, Miss Sullivan explained it further to her.
