Title: Even Dogs Go Home to Die
Description: "In snapshot pictures of her life, acclaimed "outsider" artist Linda St. John tells the story of her dirt-poor childhood in southern Illinois - her father's casual brutality and her mother's cruel indifference - and, finally, through her father's illness, the redemptive power of love. In prose as haunting as it is precise, Even Dogs Go Home to Die is one of the most original, moving, funny, and heartbreaking memoirs of recent years."--BOOK JACKET.
