The style of this book just put me off from the very first word to the point where I couldn't finish even 30 pages of it. ( ) Perhaps I was more of an impressionable young woman when I first read and loved this book. Somehow this story helped me dealing with some of this sort of stuff, somehow I enjoy it a little more than I do all the religion stuff she acquired a little later. This was a wonderful introduction for the later books, which I am still glad I read although I've sort of missed it all since "Blue Shoe." I'm sorry. It's just that there's so many other books and I don't really want to read about soberness and religion, I want to read about sex and drugs and rock and roll. This is where Anne Lamott started. I have her first edition, even with an erratum slip wedged in it. It was purchased at Vroman's bookstore in Pasadena, California. You know Anne Lamott's work today? This is everything she was before she got clean and sober and found Jesus. Still Anne, just drunk and high. Her voice was as clear then as it is today. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Jennifer is twenty three when her beloved father, Wallace, is diagnosed with a brain tumor. This catastrophic discovery sets off Anne Lamott's unexpectedly sweet and funny first novel, which is made dramatic not so much by the course of Wallace's illness as by the emotional wake it sweeps under Jen and her brothers, self contained Ben and Feckless, lovable Randy. With characteristic affection and dead on accuracy, Lamott sketches this offbeat family and their nearest and dearest as they draw ever closer in the intimacy Jen prizes among the other estimable things: good music, good hard laughter, good sex, good industry, and good books."
