Holler Rat: A Memoir by Anya Liftig
5.0
I'm shocked this memoir doesn't have more ratings and reviews. I feel like the author was so authentically herself, and didn't try to paint herself in the best possible light like others often do. The author's writing is so genuine and real. There were so many quotes that were so relatable to me.
"He looks completely clueless, that fog of manhood."
"I want him to read my mind. I want him to know me so well, to be so deeply connected to the grime and gunk in my soul that he knows I could never actually say the words "I want a diamond ring," and then he just goes and gets me one anyway."
"It's depressing to want a baby and not to be able to have one. I can tell you one thing for sure. Once you get a baby, you will smile all the time. The baby will make you smile, smile, smile, and there will be no more of this depression. It will just go away, poof!"
I took a lot away from this work and even if you aren't big into performance art, I feel like there is something in here for everyone.
