Hourglass: Time, Memory, Marriage by Dani Shapiro

5.0

I have a feeling I'm going to be thinking about this one for a while. Shapiro has this crazy amazing way of weaving together quotes, poems, memories, journal entries, and random scenes from her life and making them fit. The narrative is dreamlike in the way it flows. The memoir feels candid but not confessional. It was a quick read but I wouldn't call it particularly light. Looking forward to reading more of her work.
