The Glass Eye: A Memoir by Jeannie Vanasco

3.0

3.75 stars. I enjoyed this! I liked the more meta components - when she interrogated her reasons for writing the memoir and how she grappled with its content and purpose. I read Vanasco’s other memoir, ‘Things We Didn’t Talk About When I Was A Girl,’ earlier this year, and appreciated how there was relatively little overlap. She is a spare yet exacting author, but her prose is passionate and heartfelt.
