We Would Have Told Each Other Everything

Introspective and honest, this hybrid lecture series transforms itself into a memoir. Hermann reflects on her past and handles the omissions and silences of her writing, those of family trauma and her childhood. Split into three separate memories, these meandering autofictional studies delve into the dark spaces of life, those quiet spaces of what could have been. Memorable, striking, this book is unlike anything Ive read in a long time.
