3.0
Also a Poet offers a complex look at the relationship between the author and her father, the poet and art critic Peter Schjeldahl. While I do not think I would enjoy spending time with any of the people in this memoir, I was fascinated by the glimpse into the New York art scene and its luminaries such as Willem de Kooning. Read if you enjoy: challenging relationships, complicated feelings
Graphic: Alcoholism and Fire/Fire injury
Moderate: Drug use
