The Kiss : A Memoir
3 journalers for this copy...
From Amazon: In this extraordinary memoir, one of the best young writers in America today transforms into a work of art the darkest passage imaginable in a young woman's life: an obsessive love affair between father and daughter that began when Kathryn Harrison, twenty years old, was reunited with a parent whose absence had haunted her youth.
This was a beautifully written but disturbing memoir. It was quick to read, being relatively short but was also very compelling. The subject matter could have been treated in a sensationalist way but is actually treated very sensitively. I don't know how the father got to his position in the church but he was obviously a very good manipulator of people.

This one was a complete surprise!! Thanks so much boreal! :-) I'm looking forward to this read.
Didn't realise I'd had this book so long!
Finished last night. It was certainly a compelling read.

This book was certainly different from what I'm used to - but I found it interesting, and that is one of the reasons I enjoy book crossing - trying new things
