Maggie O'farrell - I Am, I Am, I Am Seventeen Brushes with Death

Written by Maggie O'farrell. Themes include Biography & Autobiography, Personal Memoirs.

"An extraordinarily intimate memoir of the near death experiences that have made Maggie O'farrell the woman and the writer she is today. A childhood illness she was not expected to survive. A teenage yearning to escape that nearly ended in disaster. A terrifying encounter on a remote path. A mismanaged labour in an understaffed hospital. This is a memoir with a difference: seventeen encounters with Maggie at different ages, in different locations, reveal to us a whole life in a series of tense, visceral snapshots. It is a book to make you question yourself: what would you do if your life was in danger? How would you react? And what would you stand to lose? "I Am, I Am, I Am" is a book you will finish newly conscious of your own vulnerability, and determined to make every heartbeat count." -- provided by publisher.
