My Reviews
Such an interesting story - so sad about what happened to Henrietta and the lives that her children experienced - author did a great job of making the medical descriptions understandable - what I did not like was the author did not advance the cause of Henrietta's children - I was waiting for her to intervene and get recognition/settlement for her kids and to help with Henrietta's descendants education. Thought the book was a little bit too much about the author and not even about the Lacks family.
Well written - so interesting to learn about Hemingway's life before he was the renowned "Papa" - would have loved to be in Paris with them - imagine going into a cafe and sitting with F. Scott Fitzgerald, Zelda and Gertude Stein.
Every daughter should have a father like Greenie - someone who loves her absolutely and puts you on a pedestal - a father who has unwavering faith in the incredible woman that his daughter will grow up to be!
