kitkat2500 's review for:
Run Towards the Danger: Confrontations with a Body of Memory
by Sarah Polley
2.5 stars.
This memoir containing several essays really didn’t work for me. I didn’t particularly like the writing style; I didn’t know anything about Sarah Polley before reading this book, and her self-absorbed descriptions were not particularly interesting to me - beyond understanding the possible struggles of child actors/actresses. Each essay was too long for my taste.
I found myself jumping forward over large sections just to make my way to the end…I was somewhat rewarded by how she healed her concussion. THAT was interesting - hence the title of the book.
I do wish her all the best.
