paintedhuman 's review for:
Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal?
by Jeanette Winterson
I am a dedicated fan of a body of work built on semi-autobiographical grounds to begin with.
The latter half of the book, the more recent bits, are more raw and do not reference a back-catalogue of old friends.
She still writes like she's on fire in places, capable of alternately reducing me to howls of laughter or sobs.
Yes, Jeanette. You were always wanted and your words have been touchstones, homing devices. How fitting that you should write of longing but not belonging.
Addressing critics' declarations of your alleged arrogance in a handful of words read like a moment of pure triumph.
