Summary:
When Ann Kenny was four years old her foster mother hit her across the face with a fireplace shovel. Left unconscious on the cold hard floor while her foster family went to mass, Ann almost lost an eye. This is just one of the childhood incidents Ann recalls in her vivid, shocking memoir of growing up in rural Ireland. Her two older sisters were embraced and loved, but Cinderella-like Ann was continually neglected and abused. Years later, the image of the
girl
in the
wicker
basket
wouldn't leave her alone. The time had come to stop running from the past and confront it.
