Darling Days: A Memoir
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
A Memoir From The Host Of The Ballad Of Billy Ballsborn Into The Beautiful Bedlam Of Downtown New York In The Eighties, Io Tillett Wright Came Of Age At The Intersection Of Punk, Poverty, Heroin, And Art. This Was A World Of Selfinvented Characters, Glamorous Superstars, And Strungout Sufferers, Ground Zero Of Drag And Performance Art. Still, No Personality Was More Vibrant And Formidable Than Ios Mothers. Rhonna, A Showgirl And Young Widow, Was A Mercurial, Erratic Glamazon. She Was Ios Fiercest Defender And Only Authority In A World With Few Boundaries And Even Fewer Indicators Of Normal Life. At The Center Of Darling Days Is The Remarkable Relationship Between A Fiery Kid And A Domineering Maa Bond Defined By Freedom And Control, Excess And Sacrifice; By Heartbreaking Deprivation, Agonizing Rupture, And, Ultimately, Forgiveness.Darling Days Is Also A Provocative Examination Of Culture And Identity, Of The Instincts That Shape Us And The Norms That Deform Us, And Of The Courage And Resilience It Takes To Listen Closely To Your Deepest Self. When A Group Of Boys Refuse To Let Sixyearold, Femaleborn Io Play Ball, Io Instantly Adopts A New Persona, Becoming A Boy Named Rickya Choice Ios Parents Support And Celebrate. It Is The Start Of A Profound Exploration Of Gender And Identity Through The Tenderest Years, And The Beginning Of A Life Invented And Reinvented At Every Step. Alternating Between The Harrowing And The Hilarious, Darling Days Is The Candid, Tough, And Stirring Memoir Of A Young Person In Search Of An Authentic Self As Family And Home Life Devolve Into Chaos.
