Publisher's Note
The award-winning author of Golden Days and The Rest Is Done With Mirrors now tells her life story and that of her family--one in which heavy drinking and, later, recreational drugs, were something of a family tradition. A fiercely funny and deeply empathetic book which shows that the wild life, for better and worse, has made us what we are. Photos.
Industry reviews
"[This book] is a fine example of the therapeutic power of the writing process itself, which at its best can function as a kind of exploration and exorcism that ultimately leads to healing." Women's Review of Books - Lisa Alther (07/19/1995) "...we fictionalize our own lives even as we're living them. We edit out the stuff that doesn't seem right to us and put in the stuff that seems more appropriate." San Francisco Book Review - Carolyn See "It gives you a thick description of the worst sort of family problems: alcoholism, physical abuse, abandonment, suicide. But at the same time there are incredible moments of heroism and even a happy ending, driven by improbably levels of love and attachment--real-life family values." Lingua Franca - Judith Stacey (10/19/1997)
