This is an extremely difficult book to read and I can see why Nancy included it in her chapter, "Families in Trouble" (More Book Lust, page 83). Sarah Blight is a middle aged photographer getting over a bad breakup. You, too, would call it a bad breakup if your ex's new lover puts out your eye with a pool cue. But, it gets worse. Sarah's coming of age and childhood weren't that kind either. A mentally ill mother, brother accused of murder, an uncle who committed suicide...the list goes on. Even cats aren't safe from abuse. Oddly enough, despite all the drama I was in love with Lynne McFall's writing. The Blight family (aptly named) is every family you have ever known. Dancer with Bruised Knees is a short book, around 215 pages, but one that will stick with you long after you finish the final page. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

In this outlandish and irresistible story, photographer Sarah Blight finds herself turning 40, and facing a major depression. With a survivor's stinging wit, Sarah tells her life story, a nuclear family holocaust (San Francisco Chronicle), complete with a cast of compelling, eccentric characters, reminiscent of those in the books of Anne Tyler.
