Récit d'une enfance marquée par l'itinérance et la misère la plus sordide; mais aussi admirable portrait d'une famille d'originaux, le père et la mère étant d'une excentricité absolue. [SDM].

Fantastic story of overcoming a difficult childhood with eccentric and neglectful parents.
I liked this one. I liked the matter-of-fact tone throughout, and how she skillfully wrote from a child's perspective. Many descriptions of her parents were eerily similar to stories I've heard about my own family, which means I probably won't forget this one.
