Description

"Daughter is a work of bravery, an important and eloquent memoir about the fight to reclaim the self from those that seek to undermine and destroy our very existence. A must-read for anyone who has endured toxic familial relationships, and for those who seek to survive them." (Hannah Kent, author of Burial Rites)

As a young girl, Alda Sigmundsdóttir yearns to be close to her beautiful, distant mother, yet is never able to win her affection. When her parents divorce, a dark symbiosis between mother and daughter is forged, with devastating consequences that threaten to derail everything—especially Alda’s chance at intimacy and love.

In this searingly honest memoir, the author of the beloved “Little Books” on Iceland tells the story of a childhood marred by trauma, the denial she employed to survive, and the struggle to regain her authentic self. In unpacking her personal history, Alda discovers the elusive nature of truth and its indispensable part in making us free. Inspiring, touching, and brave, this book speaks to anyone who values emotional freedom and longs to break away from the destructive patterns of the past.

A riveting memoir, culturally fascinating

This is one of the most interesting memoirs that I have read or listened to in the last decade. Alda takes us into a story that crosses countries, cultures, time zones and historical eras. As a kid who also grew up in Canada during the 70s and 80s with a mother who was also a recent immigrant, I related to many of the conflicts and altered expectations contained in this wild and disturbing story. Alda has taken her difficult experiences and learned to thrive despite and possibly because of them. In this book Alda leads the way for others by sharing her harvest of truth for those who would benefit. I did not want this book to end but it did so, and beautifully!
