This oftentimes comedic memoir explodes with resilience. Marion Hoffman Koenig kicks aside limitations, embraces magic, and strives to replace loss with kindness. Can death be morphed into life?This memoir first captures the child’s eye view of death, the magic of a child’s experience. This is balanced against growing adult understanding in the tradition of David Copperfield and Jane Eyre. After enduring more than her share of death and sickness as a young girl, Koenig takes the reader on a jam-packed adventure with exciting, dangerous, and sometimes other-worldly experiences of a young woman coming into her own and making her way in 1980s New York City. Encounters with boldface names and world-historical events add a poetic, time-capsule charm to the narrative.______________________________________'Marion Koenig could make walking down a flight of stairs intriguing!'- Ralph Gomory, Winner of the National Medal of Science
