You can be the perpetrator of your own
emptiness, it can be the very thing you need,
and it can still undo you.

I have read and recommend Fuller's memoirs, which include, in addition to the title above, Don't Lets Go the Dogs Tonight: An African Childhood (Random House, 2003) and Cocktail Hour Under the Tree of Forgetfulness (Penguin Books, reprint 2012). She also is the author of Scribbling the Cat: Travels with an African Soldier (Penguin Books, 2005).
