Negative Positive
Title: Compelling. Total page turner.
Review: When I met "Lee" Ellroy in junior high school in 1959, we knew his mother had died, but we did not know how. I lost track of Lee after we graduated, and was reintroduced to him when he became James. "My Dark Places" is shocking in it's truth, and for me a trip down memory lane, because I knew the boy who lived through this horrible experience.
