CW: sexual assault

Poetic prose memoir. Coming-of-age. Stream-of-consciousness remembrance. Adolescence in the religious South and finding your way through rebellion. Kendra Allen is one to watch. These didn't particularly feel like stories I hadn't read before, but Allen's telling of them did. I appreciate the blurred recollections, how she makes it clear that she doesn't remember what age a certain event occurred, but that it also doesn't quite matter. So much about the way this memoir reads speaks to the uncertainty around memory and memories.
