Reviews

What makes Paula Peterson's book so touching and worthwhile are not so much the incidents it documents as its simultaneously unassuming and extraordinary tone - its author's absolute lack of self-pity and self-dramatization as she shows us how an almost unthinkably dark passage in a woman's life can be illuminated by the clear light of common sense, simple grace, and courage. --O, The Oprah Magazine
