by Linda Gravenson (Author)
"Linda Gravenson writes an exquisite, searingly honest, and nuanced memoir, vivid in every scene, revealing the author's inner life as she struggles to understand how she was caught in her mother's madness, her father's abandonment, and her husband's secret. She is a master at describing internal conflict. Frozen in the doorway of her life, she simultaneously feels compelled and reluctant to act but must park fear and rage in the arresting symptom of agoraphobia. Each important player is complexly and empathically drawn. Gravenson shows their innate contradictions, their love, and their hatred, leaving her with the ache of longing for the goodness she knows is there but is offered only capriciously. It belongs in the cannon of great memoirs, equal in quality to those of Vivian Gornick, Mary Karr and James McBride."
--Joan Wexler, a retired clinical social worker and psychoanalyst on the faculty of the Western New England Institute for Psychoanalysis in New Haven, Connecticut, is the author of the memoir A Pot from Shards and the novel Make Me the Sky.
"We read literary storytelling for the possibility of encountering artistry that carries us, even through harrowing developments. In The Doorway delivers all that, a story with wrenching twists I won't forget and a deft use of language I was sorry to leave."-
--Charlene Spretnak, author of Relational Reality.
"What a writer she is, how much wisdom she includes, how it was more acceptable to be terrified than angry, stuff we take for granted now, but need to be reminded of. Not only is it her story, which is fascinating, scary, heartbreaking and triumphant, it's the story of what happened to women back in the day when they were mad. Every sentence makes you read the next one, un-putdownable. I LOVE IT."-
--Abigail Thomas, author of A Three Dog Life and Still Life at Eighty
