In the vein of Educated and The Glass Castle, Uncultured is more than a memoir about an exceptional upbringing, but about a woman who, no matter the lack of tools given to her, is determined to overcome.Behind the tall, foreboding gates of a commune in Brazil, Daniella Mestyanek Young was raised in the religious cult the Children of God, also known as The Family, as the daughter of highranking members. Beholden to The Familys strict rules, Daniella suffered physical, emotional, and sexual abusemasked as godly discipline and divine loveand was forbidden from getting a traditional education.At fifteen years old, fed up with The Family and determined to build a better and freer life for herself, Daniella escaped to Texas, bravely enrolled herself in high school, and excelled. She later elected to join the military, where she believed she would finally belong. But she soon learned that her new worldsurrounded by men on the sands of Afghanistanwas remarkably similar to the one she desperately tried to leave behind.Told in a beautiful, propulsive voice and with cleareyed honesty, Uncultured explores the dangers unleashed when harmful group mentality goes unrecognized, and is emblematic of the many ways women have tocontort themselves to survive.
