What I’m Reading: When She Comes Back by Ronit Plank
Oct 6, 2022
Great great great. This memoir delves so much deeper than the (fascinating) topic of the author’s mother and the cult she won’t quit, even for her children’s sake. Plank also goes into her relationship with her father, who played such an interesting role in the neglect, and the real effect on a child of emotional abuse through neglect.
As a trauma survivor, I didn’t find the memoir triggering. Plank hits a great balance between necessary detail and consideration for her reader.
