A review by gjmaupin
Half a Life by Darin Strauss

4.0

Lovely and brief and spare and trying to be honest. Somehow the combination of a) Strauss being a Real Writer and not just someone with an interesting life story who got a memoir deal and b) admitting upfront that the process of this book was almost entirely done for his own therapeutic reasons makes it so much more worth reading than non-a), non-b) Memoirs Of Pain.
