After the Falls

After the falls is the sequel to Catherine Gildiner’s beloved memoir Too Close to the Falls, where she recounts her remarkable coming–of–age in the 1960s. She takes on many personas — cheerleader, vandal, civil rights demonstrator — but when tragedy strikes, it is her role as daughter that proves to be most challenging.
