Review title: Sittenfeld's genius
Product review: is in taking you places -- from her past and your own -- where you're not entirely sure you want to go. But nonetheless, you go there with her, and somehow the act of having done so helps you to make sense of things, icluding your own life. I found parts of this book absolutely haunting, as I have with her other works. There are scenes which she has written which I find myself tucking away to ponder later, and which somehow I know I'll carry with me forever. The relationship which she describes between Hannah and her volatile, angry, unpredictable father -- and the way in which that relationship shapes Hannah -- is a scary, tough subject and one that I don't think any other authors have really approached in the same way. As always, I find myself wondering how much of her writing is autobiographical.
