You Could Make This Place Beautiful: A Memoir
You Could Make This Place Beautiful, like the work of Deborah Levy, Rachel Cusk, and Gina Frangello, is an unflinching look at what it means to live and write our own lives. It is a story about a mother’s fierce and constant love for her children, and a woman’s love and regard for herself. Above all, this memoir is “extraordinary” (Ann Patchett) in the way that it reveals how, in the aftermath of loss, we can discover our power and make something new and beautiful.

Phew. I listened to this and often thought I had accidentally rewound the book because of how repetitive it is. Beautiful writing and sentence structure- truly a poetic book. 2.5 rounded up to 3
