This month’s book is The Electric Woman: A Memoir in Death-Defying Acts by Tessa Fontaine.
A daughter’s astonishing memoir of pushing past fear, through life in a traveling sideshow and her mother’s illness. Turns out, one lesson applies to living through illness, keeping the show on the road, letting go of the person you love most, and eating fire: The trick is there is no trick. You eat fire by eating fire.
