I devoured this book in one weekend! Dog Flowers is an arresting, photo-lingual memoir weaving together images and text to examine mothers and mothering, sisters and caretaking, addiction and trauma. I'm currently writing my own mother's story and Geller's book has really lit a fire under me! I love the way she both critiques and honors her past, traditions, and heritage.
