jelundberg 's review for:
And the Walls Come Crumbling Down
by Tania de Rozario
The full version of my official blurb on the back of the book:
"Tania De Rozario is a marvel. Her writing evokes the same feeling as when I first discovered the music of Trent Reznor, with words raw and biting, but above all honest. In this truly remarkable memoir, she lays bare the emotional turmoil and heartbreak that comes from multiple betrayals: by the stroke that steals her grandmother's voice, by the righteous religiosity that forces her mother to choose intolerant belief over parental love, by her homeland's unreasonable standard of living that manifests as constant, literal dislocation, by the callous disregard of a significant lover that upends her whole world. Written in agonisingly beautiful prose, De Rozario presents her pain, unvarnished, for all to bear witness. Her voice is vital, and desperately necessary."
