Who saw it coming? is one of the fundamental questions of this book. A question about the past and the future, about identity and about that time of naivety and rebellion that is adolescence. Who are we at twelve years old? And at sixteen? Who do we hope to be and what do we become? And even more complicated: how to escape from what we are supposed to be? With her usual sass, in a work that is addictive, fun and sexier than ever, Mary Karr writes a love letter to adolescence. To her adolescence, well, we are facing an autobiographical narrative. Never again will time stretch like it did in those years, never again will the world be so new, so unused, nor will our eyes be so pure. There are also doubts and fears, of course. There is loneliness and helplessness. But thanks to passages that will make us burst out laughing and a moving and honest empathy, we read fascinated and full of hope the birth of the first true friendship, the encounter with that other person with whom we grow and discover ourselves, who it helps us be, everything we didn't know we wanted to be. And the glow of desire also passes through us, a deep knowledge that shakes our body until it transforms it.
