Reviews
I was transported and consumed by Schickel's hypnotic unspooling of her troubled, sexed-up adolescence and the way the legacy of that time followed her like a black dog into midlife. Beautifully written, intensely relatable, and fueled by incendiary fury and love. -- Claire Dederer, author of Love and Trouble Stirring...The probing examination of love and acceptance crackles with intensity. Schickel's raw honesty makes this hard to put down. -- Publishers Weekly Takes the vagaries and vicissitudes of the human heart and elevates them to the level of social, even political, inquiry. Erika Schickel is not just an interrogator of her own psyche but an interpreter of the times--the current era as well as the decades that led us here. -- Meghan Daum, author of The Problem with Everything
