by Naomi Wolf
First published 2005
Naomi Wolf grew up under the tutelage of her eccentric poet father, Leonard. Rather than push her toward security, he taught Naomi to embrace her creativity and individuality. From Leonard's Depression-era childhood to his bohemian San Francisco years, Naomi's memoir uncovers the inspirational wisdom of her father's unconventional path. As Naomi grapples with her father's unorthodox choices, she discovers the power of personal expression and the freedom to forge her own artistic journey.
