Graphic: Sexual assault, Violence, Suicidal thoughts, Medical content, Injury/Injury detail, Child abuse, Hate crime, Abandonment, Rape, Pedophilia, Racism, Racial slurs, Gore, Grief, Death, Adult/minor relationship, Sexual harassment, Sexual violence, and Physical abuse
Moderate: Car accident
A very thoughtful, caring, emotional memoir with exquisite prose, but mind the warnings. The way she describes being SA’d as a child is extremely graphic, disturbing, and heartbreaking. I am grateful for her honesty and bravery telling exactly how all the victims of such a horror have to walk a tightrope of expectations, and how adults often make it harder for a child to tell anyone if they are harmed. Best part is how much love overflows in the pages for everything dear to her. Maya Angelou is a wonderful soul.eas2's review against another edition
