"Chelene Knight visits each apartment and motel room she lived in as a child with her dysfunctional mother. Each chapter is a brief description or a poem about the dwelling. The structure of this book really gives you the feeling of being in all these places. I felt I was sitting next to Chelene on the edge of a bed, packing a suitcase quickly, giving her mom's new boyfriend stink eye. The photos included in the book are remarkable too. Captures the guilt and love and desperation of having a parent who is a burden on a child. Some children have so much to carry, but Knight turns it into poetry. Beautiful work."
