Goodbye, Sweet Girl
By Kelly Sundberg
272 pages
In this can't-take-your-eyes-off-the-page memoir,
hard-bitten Idaho is a savage landscape "full of sawed-off mountains,"
nuclear waste, and wild animals just outside your door. But for Sundberg, the
real danger shares her bed. How does a violent partner erode the terrain of
your heart? And are you ever too old to run away from home?
