A review by jenwestpfahl
Memorial Drive: A Daughter's Memoir by Natasha Trethewey

emotional sad medium-paced

3.5

It’s hard to rate and review such a personal book. The deeply inside view of domestic abuse and trauma was haunting. The end got a little too academic and metaphoric for me. But the author is first and foremost a poet, which has never been my thing. I’m left with some questions but I kind of think we should be left with questions. Aren’t we always left with questions when life goes terrible wrong?
