An unforgettable memoir about a young girl who kept out of school leaves her survivalist family and goes on to earn a PhD from Cambridge University

Born to survivalists in the mountains of Idaho Tara Westover was seventeen the first time she set foot in a classroom. Her family was so isolated from mainstream society that there was no one to ensure the children received an education and no one to intervene when one of Taras older brothers became violent. When another brother got himself into college Tara decided to try a new kind of life. Her quest for knowledge transformed her taking her over oceans and across continents to Harvard and to Cambridge University. Only then would she wonder if shed traveled too far if there was still a way home.

Beautiful and propulsive . . . Despite the singularity of [Tara Westovers] childhood the questions her book poses are universal: How much of ourselves should we give to those we love? And how much must we betray them to grow up?-Vogue

Westover has somehow managed not only to capture her unsurpassably exceptional upbringing but to make her current situation seem not so exceptional at all and resonant for many others.-The New York Times Book Review
