Bad Blood |
An autobiography which reads like fiction, even though you know it isn't. As a child she lived with her mother and her grandparents during WWII. The people around her are incredible in their strangeness, but she writes with great skill (she invented none of the dialogue - everything that was said was so vivid that she remembered it word for word) and I raced through it with hardly a pause. A wonderful read.
