Reviews
A powerful, beautiful sock in the stomach of a memoir. It's filled with living, breathing, three-dimensional people, settings that are so vivid they have a cinematic quality, refrains and reprises that give the whole story a musical coherence. The ending will leave readers in a state of--I don't know what--grief? joy? wonder? hope? All of those and more. I can imagine this book changing lives. --Domenica Ruta, author of the memoir With or Without You A compelling and exceedingly well-written memoir that is, at times, as heart-wrenching and hilarious as any book I've read in a very long time. Sadowski is a craftsman; there's so much earned empathy and experience in here that it's hard to overstate. --Jared Yates Sexton, author of The Man They Wanted Me to Be
