I listened to this memoir-esque book of the writer and director of Milk. A tribute to his mother, Black writes about his childhood with an abusive father figure, his mom's lifelong perserverence with polio, his coming out and acceptance of himself as a gay man with a Mormon upbringing, and growing into his career in film. Black's cadence is at times reminiscent of a general authority's, I would caution listening to the audio-version.
