    A Road Less Traveled
  

*by R***R on Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2019*

'The Chronology of Water' is a rough road. Along the way, there are speed bumps and potholes and uncertain directions, and shouldn't we have turned off back there? It's the story of a road less traveled, told in unflinching and candid detail.Simply put, it's not an easy book to read. It's also well worth the effort.'The Chronology of Water' is Lidia Yuknavitch's own story, and she approaches it with an eye towards honesty and an ear for language. If you listened to her TED Talk, or read 'The Misfit's Manifesto' (both highly recommended), then you probably already understand that Lidia has made some questionable choices in her life. In this memoir, those choices are laid bare and presented in fragments of crystalline prose. Lidia's childhood is unwound alongside her history of drug and alcohol abuse, her insecurities, and her career missteps. There are signs of hope too - in these pages, you'll read about the discovery of herself as a writer and as a person.In snippets and glimpses, Lidia gradually assembles a picture of her life. While the prose is often harsh and often unforgiving, it also glimmers and dances, light on a rushing river. The subject matter may be offensive to you, even disgust you, but the words Lidia uses will sneak up on you and surprise you time and again. In this way, as well as detailing the journey of a writer, 'The Chronology of Water' is as much a book about writing as it is a memoir.In the final analysis, 'The Chronology of Water' is honest, it's raw, and it's probably more than some readers are prepared for. If you decide to take this journey with Lidia, be ready for some bumps along the way. But also, and more importantly, keep your eyes open for some beautiful scenery, and keep your heart open to understanding the troubled and luminous life of an admirable woman.

    Screw happy endings, i'd rather read the truth.
  

*by R***C on Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2016*

I dont like to write reviews...who do i think i am is the feeling i have about it. But this book compels me to write and recommend reading. I read her words...words about her life that seemed almost puked onto the pages...words about trauma and rage and fear and a life lived and joys found inspite of all of it. No big happy ending or redemption story here, just raw honesty and brutal truths. It will be a book i read again. I believe you will too.

    Delivered just what I wanted
  

*by L***T on Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2016*

This book was exactly as I expected after watching Dr. Yuknavitch's TED talk on misfits, and was a very enjoyable read.  I like how the chapters are quite short, which makes it easy for me to keep reading in bite-sized chunks.  If you like personal memoirs of difficult and interesting lives, this will be right up your alley.
