Reviews
"Living, empowering proof that an orchid can bloom right up through concrete. A remarkable achievement from a remarkable woman who forces us to look for a word beyond 'survivor.'"-Andrew Vachss, author of Haiku, "Silverman's lyric style transforms a ravaged childhood into a work of art. The book reads like a poem."- St. Petersburg Times, "Nothing less than a bolt of electricity to the hopeful part of us that believes every portrait of a happy family that we see. . . . A terrifying and heartening book . . . I know it's going to be passed urgently from hand to hand."-Rosellen Brown, author ofBefore and After, "Nothing less than a bolt of electricity to the hopeful part of us that believes every portrait of a happy family that we see. . . . A terrifying and heartening book . . . I know it's going to be passed urgently from hand to hand."--Rosellen Brown, author of Before and After, "With great courage and startling compassion, Silverman tells [her] story. . . . Harrowing in its depiction of savage violation and profoundly moving in its portrait of a child's fear, confusion, and desperate search for a safe place."-- Kirkus Reviews, "Nothing less than a bolt of electricity to the hopeful part of us that believes every portrait of a happy family that we see. . . . A terrifying and heartening book . . . I know it's going to be passed urgently from hand to hand."-Rosellen Brown, author of Before and After, "Silverman has a brave, piercing intelligence which transcends psychological explanations and does not require symbolism to convey a sense of what she went through. . . . She has learned exquisitely how to look at what she could not face and how to speak through those silences."-- Fourth Genre, "Silverman's lyric style transforms a ravaged childhood into a work of art. The book reads like a poem."-St. Petersburg Times, "Searing, brave, powerfully-written . . . Sue Silverman's memoir is about more than incest; it is about evil, about denial, about the great chasm between the public facade of a prominent, successful family and its painful reality, and it is about how, as in a Greek tragedy, a curse has been passed down through several generations. This book is the cry that shatters the curse."--Adam Hochschild, author of Half the Way Home: A Memoir of Father and Son, "This harrowing memoir gives voice to the inarticulate terror Silverman suffered as a child, when she could never find the right words to describe her situation. She has found them now."- Booklist , "Searing, brave, powerfully-written . . .

Paid 5/17, received 5/28. Book in very good condition aside from sticker on front cover (both books in this order had them). Flimsy packaging & seller's shipping partner is woefully slow. But at least this order wasn't canceled like my last one from this seller.
