This is the story of Yrsa Daley-Ward, and all the things that happened --"even the terrible things. And God, there were terrible things." It's about her childhood in the northwest of England with her beautiful, careworn mother Marcia; the man formerly known as Dad (half fun, half frightening); and her little brother Roo, who sees things written in the stars. It's also about the surreal magic of adolescence, about growing up and discovering the power and fear of sexuality, about pitch-gray days of pills and powder and connection. It's about damage and pain, but also joy. Told with raw intensity and shocking honesty, The Terrible is a memoir of going under, losing yourself, and finding your voice"--|cProvided by publisher. 520 "A lyrical memoir -- part prose, part verse -- about coming-of-age, uncovering the cruelty and the beauty of the wider world, and redemption through self-discovery and the bonds of family"--|cProvided by publisher. 600 10 Daley-Ward, Yrsa|xChildhood and youth. 600 10 Daley-Ward, Yrsa|xFamily. 600 10 Daley-Ward, Yrsa|vPoetry. 650 0 Authors, English|y21st century|vBiography. 650 0 Women authors, English|y21st century|vBiography. 650 0 Women authors, Black|zEngland|vBiography. 650 7 BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Personal Memoirs.|2bisacsh 650 7 Coming of age.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01763769 650 7 Families.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01728849 651 7 England|zChorley.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01213146 655 7 Autobiographies.|2lcgft 655 7 Poetry.|2lcgft 655 7 Autobiographies.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01919894 655 7 Biography.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01423686 655 7 Poetry.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01423828 994 C0|bCKE
