Women We Buried, Women We Burned
From the author of the groundbreaking, award-winning No Visible Bruises, Rachel Louise Snyder presents a riveting memoir of survival, self-discovery, and forgiveness. Women We Buried, Women We Burned is a poignant narrative that will captivate readers who admired Tara Westover's Educated and Jeanette Walls' The Glass Castle.
Rachel Louise Snyder's journey began at the age of eight when her mother died, plunging her family into a tumultuous, evangelical, cult-like existence. As a rebellious teenager, she was expelled from school and home at sixteen, forced to live out of her car and rely on the kindness of strangers. In a remarkable act of resilience, Snyder navigated her way into college and embarked on a globe-spanning journey of survival and self-discovery.
Her reporting career took her to places like India, Tibet, and Niger, where she interviewed individuals who had endured unimaginable suffering. In Cambodia, where she spent six years, she witnessed the country's struggle to come to terms with its own traumatic past. Returning to the United States with a family of her own, Snyder's experiences and insights offer a profound exploration of personal and societal challenges.
Patrick Radden Keefe praises the book for its courageous imagination in a cruel world, while Masha Gessen lauds Snyder's ability to make readers experience every detail of her journey. Beth Macy admires the memoir's fierce and forgiving examination of patriarchy, and Tayari Jones highlights the precious hope emerging from Snyder's hard-won struggles. This memoir is a testament to Snyder's enduring spirit and powerful voice. 📚❤️
