Adrián Astur Álvarez reviewed Memorial Drive by Natasha Trethewey
Review of 'Memorial Drive' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
What an absolute knock out of a read. So emotionally resonant, so raw and sad and inspiring and brave. I mean, there really aren't very many memoirs like this one written so close to the heart by a writer with such formal control of her language. I loved everything about this book and though the subject is a tough one it manages to keep a perfect distance so as not to wear out the reader.
