After the Falls

After the Falls , by Catherine Gildiner, is the sequel for all those readers who wonder what happened to the quirky little girl with the extraordinary upbringing in Too Close to the Falls. As you might expect, Catherine's family life in the 60's was unusual, and when you throw in the chaotic and liberated political and social scene of the time, it makes for another fascinating memoir. There's a bit of a twist at the end which goes a little way to explain some things, but her story is still improbable and entertaining.
