Her Chapter – Ohio Feminist Art Museum Book Club
From The Standard:
They wanted the body of a child and the cynicism of a woman
“Then her father took over her life. In her telling, he treated her for his alcoholism. It reads like a Tennessee Williams play. Her family are control freaks: she wouldn’t let her mother hold her son for the first two months of his life. But what her father did was more calculating and avaricious. He had her put under a conservatorship. He told her what to eat, when to exercise, and he wouldn’t let her drive. But she worked nonstop so her family could live in luxury. She complied so she could see her sons and had a long Las Vegas residency in which her father wouldn’t let her change her songs. This went on for 13 yearse.”
