Tiger, Tiger: A Memoir
Autor Margaux Fragosoen Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 mar 2011
At two in the afternoon, when he would come and pick me up and take me for rides; at five, when I would read to him, head on his chest; in the despair at seven p.m., when he would hold me and rub my belly for an hour; in the despair again at nine p.m. when we would go for a night ride, down to the Royal Cliffs Diner in Englewood Cliffs where I would buy a cup of coffee with precisely seven sugars and a lot of cream. We were friends, soul mates and lovers.
I was seven. He was fifty-one.

Recenzii
'Tiger,
Tigerwill
start
a
thousand
conversations.
It
is
shocking,
revelatory
and
fearless.
As
the
story
of
a
victim,
it
is
gripping;
as
a
work
of
literature,
it's
a
triumph'
Margaux Fragoso was only 7 years old when she swam up to a guy in his 50s and asked him to play with her. The mesmerizing memoir of the next fifteen years - spent with the pedophile who became her playmate, father, and lover - had us enraged, horrified, and unable to put it down.
Margaux Fragoso's memoir, a subtly crafted account of her 15-year involvement as a child and adolescent with a middle-aged man, asks urgent questions about the traffic between memory and art.
AnObserverCultural Highlight of 2011
What I'm Telling My Friends:Brave, dark, and horrifying ... an unforgettable survivor's story. Get it. Read it. NOW!
Revelatory...her tale loops amazingly around her own coming-of-age and sets her down in adulthood with a transformative twist...it breaks the mold...an astonishing and heartbreaking drama.
We dare you to turn away.
Astonishing.
Fragoso is a born storyteller, and stories were her fail-safe during her scarring entanglement with the man who devoured her childhood....[She] matches shattering exposure with humanizing insights and extraordinary compassion.
