Summary of Maggie Nelson's The Red Parts
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 I grew up knowing that my mother had a younger sister named Jane who had been murdered, but I didn't know how or why. I knew Jane had been twenty-three when she died, and in her first year of law school at the University of Michigan.
#2 I had a recurring dream about jumping off the carport of our house in Sausalito and dying. It was a dream I had very young, and it was difficult to remember the tone of it now: horror at my action, a sense of detachment, and deep sadness.
#3 I was terrified that my mother might hate the book, which would make it a birthday disaster. I was also terrified that the book might re-open the case and reveal more information about the other girls' murders.
#4 I was relieved when my mother called me after finishing the manuscript. She was in tears, saying she would be eternally grateful both to it and to me. She said it was a miracle: even though I never knew Jane, I had managed to bring her back to life.
