Just found this wonderful review by Kate O'Gorman. It was posted in August. I've never gotten the hang of August. Thanks to Kate for her kind and thoughtful words. 

"What is uniquely brilliant about Wreck is the structure Burke employs over three chapters entitled Asking 1, 2, and 3. As the author works through her complicated relationship with her grandfather—a difficult man she feels responsible for, a man she may or may not love, a man whose actions caused great pain and grief—Burke becomes the unreliable narrator of her own life. Here, the author’s approach to writing memoir is dazzlingly creative, and perhaps a bit cathartic."
