ABOUT THE BOOK
Finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award for Autobiography 2018
Finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize for Biography 2018
Tara Westover grew up preparing for the end of the world. She was never put in school, never taken to the doctor. She did not even have a birth certificate until she was nine years old.
At sixteen, to escape her father's radicalism and a violent older brother, Tara left home. What followed was a struggle for self-invention, a journey that gets to the heart of what an education is and what it offers: the perspective to see one's life through new eyes, and the will to change it.
