Review title: Who's the writer in the family?
Product review: I started A Girl Named Zippy prejudiced in its favor, based on reviews I'd read, and at first I wasn't disappointed. In fact, my initial reaction was so favorable that it took me a while to admit to myself how disenchanted I later became. After a while, the narrator stops seeming charmily witty and comes across, instead, as nasty. "I thought she just got disgusting," my 19-year-old daughter said forthrightly. (More discerning than I, she simply stopped reading a third of the way through.) What appears to be a complete lack of any spiritual dimension is, I think, what does Kimmel in; it's one thing to reject the specific religious tradition of one's family, but a childish brat with no larger frame of reference just isn't appealing. It occured to me later that in the first pages of her book, Kimmel relies heavily on quoting from entries made in her baby book by her mother; maybe the mother is the one whose memoir I'd really like to read.
