She's growing up in Newfoundland. Her mother suffers from terrifying nighttime hallucinations. Her father's business is about to collapse. She layers the world she hears on radio and television onto her family, speaking in paratactic prose with a point-blank delivery. She finds relief only in the glamour of Hollywood films and the majesty of Newfoundland's wilderness. Revealing her life through flashbacks, humour, and her signature self-confidence, Dominic takes readers from 1950s Newfoundland to 1960s Pittsburgh, 1970s New York, and the end of the millennium in Toronto. Capturing the long days of childhood, this book questions how important those days are in shaping who we become as we age and time seems to speed up. With quick brush-stroke chapters Dominic chronicles sixty years of a complex, secretive family in this story about violence, adolescence, families, and forgiveness."--Publisher's website. 410 0$aLife writing series. 606 $aAdult child sexual abuse victims$zCanada$vBiography 606 $aArtists$zCanada$vBiography 606 $aAuthors, Canadian (English)$y20th century$vBiography 607 $aNewfoundland and Labrador$vBiography 615 0$aAdult child sexual abuse victims 615 0$aArtists 615 5$aAuthors, Canadian (English) 676 $a818.54 700 $aDominic$b Magie$f1944-$0906866 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910154965403321 996 $aStreet angel$92028531 997 $aUNINA
