I enjoyed this book. I know the area and could identify with some of the locations and experiences she talked about. It was in places a very sad story but the author concentrates on the strength of an extended family in replacement for a weak nuclear family. Her discussion of how mental illness was handed in the 50's and 60's is a stark reminder of a past that I hope we have moved beyond.
