Industry Reviews "It is in writing this memoir that Ansay reclaims control of the larger narrative of her life and lays it out, as Wallace Stevens put it, 'without evasion by a single metaphor' imposed on her by God and other people. Ansay's sense of release is evident. In recasting her life whole, with all of its ''blurred edges,'' unsettling ambiguities and glimmers of transcendence, she tells a story that generates its own subversive and powerful truth."
