Kim Williams's review

Dec 12, 2022

really liked it

bookshelves: family-drama, gender, motherhood, nonfiction, patriarchy, poverty, france

Small little memoir written by a young man, particularly about his Mother and her struggles as a young mom with abusive alcoholic husbands. (She divorced one and married another.) I knew next to nothing about class disparity in France so this was enlightening, and overall I found it to be a touching and engaging book.
