"This is an authentic and vulnerable memoir with moments of both sorrow and joy, written with an adult's awareness that a chaotic, messy upbringing will shape later years." -- Booklife Review
Told with honesty and clarity, Lucky Girl bears witness to the transformative power of reflection, the freedom born from truth-telling, and the quiet triumph of creating a beautiful and meaningful life from fractured beginnings. It stands as a compelling testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the enduring promise of hope. In this intimate and unflinching narrative Diane and Robert Vieira trace a deeply personal journey through the turbulence of Diane's early family life. Details of her father's mental illness, the conflicted and complicated relationship with her mother, and the weight of family secrets and dysfunction, are told with sensitivity and grace.
