The Fact of a Body: A Murder and a Memoir by Alexandria Marzano-Lesnevich

dark emotional sad medium-paced

5.0

What’s most remarkable about this book is how fluidly Marzano-Lesnevich synthesizes impossibly broad swaths of information into coherent narrative. The massive undertaking of research that was required to make this text happen is nothing short of spectacular, but perhaps most striking is the balance struck between analysis and emotion, between facts and the life that happens inside them.
