Sue | 2748 comments Maggie O'Farrell's memoir is told through a series of short stories about her near brushes with death - of which there were enough to fill a book without even including events she was too young to remember.

Her stories are told with the same warmth and wry sense of humor she shares in her books.

A wonderful read, and I'm glad she escaped each of her near death experiences to continue to write such great books!


Ellen | 3539 comments I read this one last year and enjoyed it as well. I can't decide if she is extremely unlucky or extremely lucky?! That is a lot of close calls for one person but I agree that she writes about them with warmth and humor.
