And what is terrific is that while it reveals many details of Aguirre’s life, in particular her coming to grips with how the rape affected her, there’s no doubt enough unwritten material to comprise another volume sometime in the future. I'm glad she gained something from all the "put-downs" and was able to come out the other side a stronger artist.

Fierce, funny and enlightening, Aguirre interweaves her account of coming to grips with the attack that shook her world with a host of stories of life and love. This says a lot about his ability to move forward even when facing an otherwise distracting time of life at the same time. I loved her memoirs about her time as a Chilean revolutionary, and in particular the historical element of the book (she talks a lot about the Chilean coup and the Nicaraguan Sandinistas).Carmen Aguirre was taken, aged 11, from her comfortable Canadian exile, by her mother, to Chile, then Bolivia, Peru, Argentina, spending the next 6 years in the safe houses her mother and stepfather ran. The mainstream life inhabited my head and lived on my skin, the refugee life in my heart, guts, and womb.
