As candid and compelling as Mary Karr's The Liars' Club and Jeanette Walls's The Glass Castle, After the Falls is an irresistible account of one girl's coming-of-age during a tumultuous era and the moving tale of a rebellious spirit learning what it means to be a daughter.

Writing about a time of social transition and cultural upheaval, Catherine Gildiner’s voice — charming, affable, unflappable, dryly funny and keenly perceptive—guides us through severn years of her eventful, extraordinary journey on this Planet .
