A Face for Picasso: Coming of Age with Crouzon Syndrome by Ariel Henley

4.0

This was a very well written memoir of growing up with Crouzon Syndrome (hence the title). I could have done without the detailed descriptions of the surgeries (because I have a weak stomach), but it was very eye opening to the struggles for survival that Ariel and Zan had to go through. It was also heartbreaking to read about all the bullying they were subject too. I don't understand why people are so awful to others that look different than they do, or don't fit the societal "norms" of beauty.

This was my book club's pick for August. I'm looking forward to hearing what other thought of it.
