Love Junkie: A Memoir

Autor Rachel Resnick
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 aug 2009
“A tell-all, in-your-face, tearing-off-of-the-sheets.”—"Los Angeles Times "Rachel Resnick hits her forties single, broke, depressed, and childless. Looking back over years of failed relationships, she identifies a lifelong addiction to love—an addiction to the unfulfilled fantasy of romantic bliss, marriage, and family, and to a string of sexual relationships that only carry her farther from that dream. As she peels back one raw layer after another, she must eventually confront the painful experiences of her childhood—and the difficult work of recovery that lies ahead. A groundbreaking, compulsively readable memoir, "Love Junkie "charts Resnick’s path from destructive love to intimacy, from despair to hope, and cracks open one of our more elusive and pervasive modern-day addictions.

Recenzii

'Insightful and heartbreaking, but also wonderfully comedic in its gutsy honesty, this is a powerful and beautiful memoir' Jonathan Ames, author of Wake Up, Sir! 'Love Junkie is so alive, it reads as though Rachel Resnick sliced open her heart, dipped in her pen, and chronicled her life of carnal and romantic madness in an ambulance with a bed in it. The result is a memoir of flesh and redemption, told with scorching intensity and clear-eyed, universal truth a fearless, nasty, affectionate, weirdly spiritual, sex-soaked, smart and un-putdownable Valentine from hell' Jerry Stahl, author of Permanent Midnight, Perv and I, Fatty 'Reading Love Junkie is like watching a sleepwalker taking a stroll on a freeway. All you can do is pray. Gorgeously written, piercingly honest' Janet Fitch, author of White Oleander 'Provocative. Striking. Rachel Resnick is a virtuoso on the page. Her fearless examination of the desperate thirst to find love is guaranteed to break your heart. Yet her cool-eyed analysis of the roots of this addiction inspires hope that through committed self-understanding, maybe each of us can change toxic patterns, whatever they may be' Samantha Dunn, author of Failing Paris
