Devastation Rating
abuse memoir sexual assault survival
Our Take
Sebold was raped as a college freshman and wrote about it with an unflinching directness that refuses to protect the reader. The title is what the police called her — lucky, because the last girl found in that tunnel was dead. The aftermath is as devastating as the assault.
