Who Do You Think You Are?

"Here's a book so honest it won't let you off the hook. You may not realize it during the early pages, but it's a book about love. Indeed, it's a story where love is redefined, and even though it traces the sometimes unbearable relationship of mother and daughter, there are insights here for all of us. And the writing is masterly: taut, honest and strangely satisfying.
-Frank McCourt, Pulitzer Prize-winning
author of Angela's Ashes, Tis, and Teacher Man

"Alyse Myers candidly illuminates how challenging it sometimes is to love those closest to us, but how necessary it is to love them, if only so that we may know what love is." -Esmeralda Santiago, author of When I Was Puerto Rican, Almost a Woman, and The Turkish Lover

"A compelling read
Popular memoirs are peopled now with
sadists and victims, but Alyse Myers has put real people in her story. She's written a wonderful book. Completely genuine, and yet artfully done."
-Benjamin Cheever, author of
Selling Ben Cheever, The Plagiarist, and Strides: Running Through History with an Unlikely Athlete
