The Chocolate Lady (94 KP) rated Running in the Family in Books
Oct 5, 2020
In 1978 and again in 1980, author Michael Ondaatje went to visit the island of his birth, Sri Lanka. This book chronicles his visits and tells the stories of his homeland and ancestors in the most poetic and beautifully written memoir ever.

The memoir itself it is written well. I love how each person is introduced and how Jeanette wrote her family. I really love Jeanette and her older sister. It is rough with so many things happening to the family. It is an emotional ride too as you read through the memoir.
For me I wish there was a warning in the beginning and in front of the chapter or event to anyone who ever was abused that it could possibly trigger them. I know it is not a big part in the memoir but it wouñd help many.

Eilidh G Clark (177 KP) rated Night Song of the Last Tram - A Glasgow Childhood in Books

Not the best memoir I've read
This is a memoir about the author growing up in a working class family in Glasgow. I read this as part of my dissertation on memoir but was deeply disappointed. The childhood language and the adult language are disjointed, the transitions from the adult self and the child self are awkward and the story (for me) was flat. That's not to say its a terrible book. Some of the memories are sweet, vivid and well put together.
