Fiction. "These are pure stories. They are told because they have to be told, because the people in them exist in an un-narrated, anguished time that uses them without seeming purpose. Gloria Frym gives these lives back their stories. I felt—while overhearing these—the pleasure of being an intruder, a spy, a voyeur."—Andrei Codrescu
"HOW I LEARNED...achieves moments of eloquence, sharing the street-savvy wisdom of an impressive chorus of reclaimed voices."—The New York Times Book Review
