It is certainly remarkable and deeply moving. I also believe it is important. Lorretta McCloughlan (former Editor Boston Globe) A brave and poignant story, it's an emotional roller coaster. I could not put it down. I seldom weep, but weep I did, many times as I read this wonderful little book. Jonathan Eig - Best selling Biographer USA I was moved.
