Kelley Jo Burke embarks on a wild journey to understand many things, including the part where her grandfather sort of murdered her grandmother. Returning to a house filled with her first memories of childhood, she begins to explore the complex origins of her own anxiety. Along the way, she reflects on alienation and immigration, mental health and generational trauma, and the nature of memory itself. A memoir filled with raw honesty, comedy, tragedy and grace.
Wreck: A Very Anxious Memoir Reviews
-
A very fragmented memoir with some great passages, though in the audiobook certain sections are separated by bell rings which is quite annoying.
