yuknavitch's memoir was unpredictable, traumatic, and reflective, all while being heartbreakingly poetic.
i have no words. she made us feel her emotions. the graphic descriptions of her experiences, and the ways in which she self sabotaged as a result of her childhood trauma was surreal.
read this book, but please PLEASE be careful. it is very heavy and personally, i found it a little triggering.
