Book Price $0 : “Nietfeld’s Gifts For Capturing The Fury Of Living At The Mercy Of Bad Circumstances, For Critiquing The Hero’s Journey Even While She Tells It, Make Acceptance A Remarkable Memoir.” —The New York Times Book ReviewA Hard-hitting And Hilarious Memoir Of Ambition, Desperation, And The Dark Side Of Grit Growing Up In A House Filled With Dirty Feather Boas And Fearless Mice, Emi Nietfeld Dreams Of Escaping To The Ivy League. Emi’s Single Mom Believes In Her, But Can’t Stop Hoarding—catapulting Emi Into The Underworld Of Troubled Teen Treatment, Foster Care, And Homelessness. When Her Shot Arrives To Trade Sleeping In Her Car For The Hallowed Halls Of An Elite College, Emi Must Decide: How Far Will She Go To Market Herself As A Perfect “overcomer” When Her Problems Are Far From Over? And What Will It Cost To Maintain That Illusion At Harvard And Into Adulthood? From Journalist, Mental Health Advocate, And Software Engineer Emi Nietfeld, This Searing Coming-of-age Story Is Both A Chronicle Of The American Dream And An Indictment Of It. Exposing The Price Of Trading A Troubled Past For The Promise Of A Bright Future, Nietfeld Explores Whether Any Amount Of Success Can Make Trauma Worth It. With A Ribbon Of Dark Humor, Acceptance Challenges Our Ideas Of What It Means To Overcome—and Live On Your Own Terms.
