Overview

Introduction by Rick Moody A tale of addiction: to drugs, physical love and dysfunctional family chains. A tale of mothers and daughters, their mutual rebellion and unconscious mimicry. In poetic, sensuous and seemingly simple language, Rose recounts the tortures of growing up with an emotionally crippled, materialistic mother and a father who is slowly killed by gambling and cancer, as she slowly slips into the manipulative arms of a parasitic, cocaine-fed artist and slumlord. This is the long-awaited reprint of Rose's breathless, fierce and visceral flight.
