	Please believe the hype . . . Nolan's book describes a very particular experience and it does so with rare intelligence and courage . . . [Her] headlong, fearless prose feels like salt wind on cracked lips. You wince and you thrill.
Other text	Deeply felt and seriously, spikily intelligent . . . The millennial author everyone should be watching right now.
