A review by suzannetronier
Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal? by Jeanette Winterson

5.0

Jeanette Winterson has a powerful voice. She writes with the precision of a poet and has a hell of a story to tell. Her childhood was awful, dominated by a larger than life depressed wacked out Christian mother. Jeanette finds her salvation in (forbidden) books, which provide comfort, the world, and a way out of the life she was handed. They also give her the tools to become the important literary voice she has become. This is an alternate, non fiction account of the story she told in Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit.

I loved the open, what's nextness of the ending.
