01.13: A List of Things That Didn't Kill Me
2014-12-18 20:04:24| Powells Books Events Calendar
How does a good kid overcome a bad childhood? Jason Schmidt's searing debut memoir explores that question with unflinching clarity and wit, in the tradition of Jeannette Walls's The Glass Castle. Schmidt wasn't surprised when he came home one day during his junior year of high school and found his father, Mark, crawling around in a giant pool of blood. Things like that had been happening a lot since Mark had been diagnosed with HIV three years earlier. Jason's life with Mark was full of secrets — about drugs, crime, and sex. If the straights — people with normal lives — ever found out any of those secrets, the police would come and Jason's home would be torn apart. So the rule, since Jason had been in preschool, was never to tell the straights anything. A List of Things That Didn't Kill Me (Farrar Straus Giroux) is a funny, disturbing memoir full of brutal insights and unexpected wit that explores the question: How do you find your moral center in a world that doesn't seem to have one?
