"We are all of us more complicated than the roles we are assigned in the stories other people tell."
A truly incredible memoir. Told with conviction, yet balanced with an intentional awareness to discrepancies in how individuals recall shared experiences - especially complicated or traumatic memories.
Themes of family, love, and relationships with others and one's self. Religion, faith, and trust. Resilience. History, education, curiosity, and a hunger to grow.
What is love? How does it change when conditions are attached? When prerequisites, expectations, or specific rules introduced?
"What is a person to do when their obligations to their family conflict with other obligations - to friends, to society, to themselves?"
