arnie's review
3.0
Quite an unusual autobiography, very literary, very unusual in the selections she chooses to write about herself. Two things seem to have dominated her life, her parents and the Catholic church. She comes back to both repeatedly. The former she is highly critical of but madly in love with; of the latter she is just highly critical. She skips over periods other autobiographies might dwell upon--her marriages and divorces, for example. After reading this I feel as though I know her parents a lot better than I know Maureen Howard.
