"This memoir is culled in part from the actual day-to-day field reports of civil rights workers who risked their lives in the 1960s South. The author uniquely reveals the daily and hourly terror that had to be faced to defeat Jim Crow segregation."

"Some of the most important pictures taken of Marilyn Monroe throughout her career with a memoir to go along with it. She and De Dienes were lovers and longtime friends. She would often visit him and take pictures purely for the catharsis of it."

"Roz Chast is always funny, but this graphic memoir about caring for her aging parents is also raw, brutally honest, and heartbreaking. It’s an unsparing portrait of decline, but also a loving act of witness; it tells the truth without sugar-coating or looking away."
