From the Prologue:
"I thought I could keep the past hidden forever, the way my mother did
when I was growing up, but that is no longer healthy or possible. I
must return to the suffocating confusion of my youth to understand my
sorrow, make sense of my shame, and integrate the secrets of my
unclaimed history."
    --Deborah Layton

  The above excerpt cannot begin to capture the
essence of this book, or the profound impact it
had on me.
  Still, maybe it conveys something of the raw
honesty and courage of the amazing woman who
wrote it.
