joja_zch's review

dark emotional tense fast-paced

4.0

La lucidez con la que la autora, apoyada en la distancia y perspectiva que da el tiempo (y la terapia), logra narrar las circunstancias que la orillaron a caer en las garras de un p3dófilo, el infierno que por décadas la acompañó como consecuencia de lo hecho por este ser despreciable (y que continuó acosándola por años) y el análisis que ella misma hace de la situación y de cómo, independientemente de la época, una sociedad decide hacerse de la vista gorda ante actos asquerosos de los que el hombre este se jacta en público solo por tener la “aureola” de escritor… 
Es que, ¡la ira que me ha hecho sentir este libro!
Rescato este libro como catarsis de la autora, como muestra de lo perversa que puede ser la sociedad, como un diario de redención puesto en palabras simples, sin victimización, directo, puntual. Que, si hubiera querido, la autora también podría haber hecho todo lo contrario y no estaría mal…
💯 recomendado.

challenging dark emotional informative reflective sad medium-paced

5.0

genuinely can not believe this memoir hasn't won a Pulitzer. one of the best books i have ever read and that is saying a lot. the prose cuts through you and opens your mind. the emotions springora went through i felt through her writing. truly no other better description than this book is a "Molotov cocktail thrown at the face of the French establishment". breathtaking and heartwrenching.
