Escape
Carolyn Jessop, Laura Palmer
Broadway, 2007
Sad but good
As I read 'Escape' I kept having to remind myself that I wasn't reading a work of fiction. I had such a hard time comprehending that the life Carolyn Jessop lived actually took place. Bravo to her for not only escaping the FLDS life but flourishing.

A Freewheelin' Time: A Memoir of Greenwich Village in the Sixties
Suze Rotolo
Broadway, 2008
Her Back Pages...
I loved this book. The story of a proto-feminist red-diaper baby artist who migrates to the post-beatnik Village is a story worth hearing--Suze Rotolo's re-telling of her role in publicly disobeying the Cuba travel embargo is alone worth the price of admission. But, ...
