Opis

Louise DeSalvo's The House of Early Sorrows is a stunning collection of one writer's beginnings. DeSalvo reframes and revises these memoiristic essays, pieces that were the seeds of longer collections, to reveal her true power as a memoirist: the ability to dig ever deeper for personal and political truths that illuminate what it means to be a woman, a child of Italian immigrants, a writer, and a scholar.
