Coincidentally, I heard this woman on NPR this morning. Her story was fascinating, but I didn't get to hear the whole thing. Here's the link to the show: http://wamu.org/programs/dr/
I heard her on Diane Rehm yesterday as well! That's what prompted me to post it . . . I was struck by how educated and intelligent this woman sounded. I guess it was hard for me to believe she had come from this background - she sounded so worldly and open-minded. That's what really made me want to read her book. Her story about how her oldest daughter went back to the community when she turned 18 is absolutely heartbreaking.
