adorará Adira ao LibraryThing para descobrir se gostará deste livro. Page one, paragraph one of this collection of remembrances details the suicide of the author's eight-year-old cousin. Allison signals immediately her intent - to provoke, to shock and to stir the reader out of their their comfortable apathy. A born storyteller, she swings effortlessly between themes including abuse, death, poverty and sex (the sweaty, passionate, lesbian variety). Highly recommended for all, especially lovers of Southern and/or queer fiction. (  ) whirled | Jan 20, 2009 |  Dorothy Allison writes in the Southern tradition with a twist--she's a lesbian and she's not ashamed of it, even coming from a dirt poor family that places importance on how many babies you can produce and how well you marry. This slim book is a collection of short memoir narratives that read as if Allison is sitting right in front of you, sipping on sweet tea and smoking a cigarette, while she divulges all of her secrets. Some secrets are raw and painful while others are delightful and sensuous--but they all have one thing in common--they are real. And wonderful. And leaves your flesh craving more. Highly recommend! ( )1  lildrafire | Sep 18, 2008 | I started reading this, but I don't know if I have the heart for it. I feel wimpy saying it - I just don't know if I could come back up from the depths it wants to take me to. mdesive | Mar 9, 2008 | Dorothy Allison is a great writer and I enjoyed this book although I think Bastard Out of Carolina is still the best work she's ever done.
