Ten years after the publication of her bestselling memoir, Runaway: Diary of a Street Kid , Evelyn Lau reflects on her life, relationships and her identity as a writer. Moving seamlessly between past and present, Lau describes how her complex, painful relationship with her parents has shaped her adult desires and thwarted her efforts to connect with both men and women. She contemplates her harrowing battles with bulimia and depression. Revisiting her life as a prostitute, she explores the extent to which it continues to distort her perception of herself and how others view her. Above all, Lau considers herself as a writer. She reveals the supreme importance she has come to place on her writing and explains her controversial willingness to breach the boundaries between public and private in the name of art. Beautifully written, Inside Out is remarkable for its startling honesty, sensitivity and painful insight.
