Publisher's Synopsis
Living on a Fault dramatizes a 6-decade cross-cultural love story begun in a time when social and sexual mores restricted women's lives. We follow the author as she copes with her alcoholic father, the crib-death of her baby, and with the mental illness of her son, at a time when the psychiatric world believed that mothers cause schizophrenia. Finally, we travel with the writer when, as a widow, she pushes aside superstitions, guilts and fears from the past and creates a life of joy in the present.
