"A piercing, challenging, and incredibly intimate memoir which envelops you in its folds as it revisits memories, ideas of femininity, control, and imagination."
Hitting like a bolt of lightening, this powerful and provocative memoir is one I will be recommending far and wide. Although incredibly personal, it will likely strike an emotional chord with many as it wanders the corridors of memories and examines the traps that lie within. Sarah Moss writes novels, they often walk into darkness and her Ghost Wall which was shortlisted for the Women’s Prize for Fiction in 2019 is one that will forever stay with me. As soon as I saw she had written a memoir I was intrigued but had no idea as to the journey I would follow. I absolutely love how she has written this, worlds almost splatter across the page declaring meaning and although questioning memory, it feels like truth. She validates feelings, allows them freedom to explore and they kept me company as I read. She writes with eloquence, wit, and thoughtfulness as she touches on childhood, relationships, anorexia, and her thoughts and imagination. There are an abundance of insights and slices of inspiration to take away with you and I just had to choose this as not only a Liz Pick of the Month but also a LoverReading Star Book. My Good Bright Wolf is rather special, it gives, it inspires, it challenges. Highly recommended.
