Heather Chaplin: Reckless Years

Chaplin’s memoir begins with her confession that she was no longer love her husband of thirteen years. After leaving him, she traveled to Dublin and fell in love with an Irish man who called her “girl” and “chick,” told her to lick his balls, and came on her back while she was sleeping. The diary entries are filled with intimate details ranging from sex, depression, schizophrenia, to incest. It’s an honest, brutal read, but could be edited down to about two hundred pages.
