Description

One day, I find a bottle of Smirnoff under the kitchen sink. I have never seen anyone drink it, but I know it is liquor. I take a giant swig. Holy burning. I feel like my throat is torched. It takes what seems like forever to stop stinging. When it does, I forget I am angry, lonely, and especially sad. I feel so sad at only ten years old.*Margarette had her first drink at the age that most girls are still watching cartoons and riding their bike. When her beloved grandmother passed away, Margarette was thrown into a world of emotional confusion, trauma, and grief. She carried this deep inner sadness with her and alcohol soon became both her best friend and her worst enemy. Margarette leaned on alcohol while a cop with the NYPD, protecting the people on the streets of her beloved city, while privately locking herself away with bottles of liquor for comfort every night. This incredibly raw and honest memoir delves into growing up with a struggling mother, an absent father, and surviving on the streets of Harlem in the 80s and 90s. It is the story of a girl just trying to find her way through the complexities of life - simply because she never felt like enough. Margarette's story will have you laughing and crying at the harsh beauty of reality, and the courage it takes to change everything.
