At just 5 years old this would be the last time that Liz Murray could remember fe eling like a child. In the years that would follow she would be c onsistently absent from school, kept awake with the pain of hunge r or from waiting up until the small hours for her drug addicted parents to return home - parents who spent what little money thei r government dependent family had on getting their next fix. Bare ly managing to hold her family together and outcast for her dirty appearance, Liz was certain that dreams of a better life were ju st that. At the age of 15, she found herself homeless with nowher e to turn but the rough streets, scraping by eating garbage and r iding subways all night to have a warm place to sleep. But when h er mother died of AIDS a year later, Liz's life changed forever. Determined to take control, she pulled herself back from the brin k and set about picking up the pieces of her life: Starting with finishing high school. Without a stable home and while supporting herself and her sister, Liz defied all the odds when at the age of eighteen she was awarded a once unthinkable scholarship to Har vard. Told with astounding sincerity, BREAKING NIGHT is the breat htaking and inspirational memoir of how a young women, born into a world without hope, used every ounce of strength and determinat ion to steer herself towards a brighter future. Beautifully writt en, it is a poignant, evocative and stirring portrait of struggle , desperation, forgiveness and survival. Codice articolo 2480q
