This book opens with a very graphic murder/rape scene that left me feeling unsettled. I realized I haven’t read enough from this author to trust that a jarring scene like that wouldn’t smack me in the face again. Everytime I picked this book up, I felt myself bracing for the worst. This memoir is also told in vignettes and I found it difficult to find a rhythm in the writing.
