Marvellous memoir! An abusive father, an alcoholic mother, sex, drugs and more sex, multiple marriages, it's a wonder the author survived to discover she could write. However you need to be of strong stuff to read this - it opens with an account of the stillbirth of her daughter while in her twenties. Powerful and moving. Loved it.
