Her Last Death by Susanna Sonnenberg 2008
This memoir begins with a decision made in the present. We then are taken through Sonnenberg's past. We learn of her mother's fierce love, cruelty and selfish neglect. This is a woman addicted to drugs and sex and getting her own way. Her daughter is thus schooled.
Sonnenberg's writing style is good enough to keep you reading even during the less riveting parts. Hers is a remarkable story yet even the most ordinary and average reader can relate.
That Sonnenberg becomes the woman she is, reminds us that we are free to choose what we are.
Rating: good.
