Description

Gypsy-Rose Blanchard's memoir is a harrowing and hopeful account of her life under the abuse of her mother, Dee Dee. Forced to use a wheelchair in public and endure a lifetime of medical and emotional manipulation, Gypsy was subjected to a cycle of abuse that began with her father's actions and continued until her mother's tragic death. In this revelatory memoir, Gypsy shares the painful realities of her childhood, including the guilt and responsibility she felt for her mother's death, and the struggles she faced in her final days in prison. With unprecedented candour, Gypsy reveals the details of her life that she previously kept private, including her experiences with unnecessary surgery and her journey towards recovery and self-discovery. Featuring intimate family photos, Gypsy-Rose Blanchard's memoir offers a unique and powerful look at the real Gypsy, as she embarks on her ongoing journey towards healing and a fresh start.
