The Fact of a Body: A Murder and a Memoir

Wow. This was such a heavy read. It's beautifully written – I'm glad the author found her voice and the strength to tell her story.

I appreciate her wrestling with the complex questions of who's responsible and where does causality begin? I also found it interesting to consider how those questions can be answered in different ways, especially when a courtroom is involved.

I'd recommend the book, but it covers very sensitive topics (child abuse, molestation, murder) that might trigger some folks. Read it only if you're in a good frame of mind to start with.
