Vickie writes convincingly about the ironies and lessons that experience bestow, and one's ability to learn from mistakes of judgement, pride, and self-absorption. At the heart of her story is the talented, ambitious, temperamental Cristiani Family. For much of the narrative, she portrays her relatives in respectful, admiring, yet frank and unsentimental terms.
She has no illusions about them; in the end, however, it is family--complicated as they are--whom she comes home to, family who hold many of the keys to her redemption, family acclaimed by a world they themselves struggled to keep alive years later. Dr. Mort Gamble, Forepaugh - Lubin "Around the Curve" book review.
