5.0 out of 5 stars A sensational combination of photography and dramatic story., 20 Oct 1998
By A Customer
Patt Blue's book about her parents stands apart from the many memoirs I have read in the past seven years of memoir overkill. The appeal was in the way she allowed her parents to speak for themselves, adding her voice as counterpoint. (The father speaks through his photographs) The mother's voice is plainspoken. Blue's voice is reflective. Together, with a powerful story of submission and dominance (the parents married each other three times and divorced three times), the author has woven a personal story that reads like a novel. It was a page turner for me. As a woman not in the same dour position as Louise, Blue's mother, I was fascinated with her struggle to survive as the wife of a man who questioned her every move and kept her penniless while he played around as a Don Juan. Some of the bizarre scenes are as hilarious as they are depraved. Her daughter takes what she has learned from her mother's sad life and runs with every bit of positive energy she can carry. I was inspired by her will to overcome the heavy odds weighing against her. This book is her success.
