Product Information

Pearl's Oyster, A Memoir tells the story of a woman's triumph in clarifying and coming to terms with family dynamics and their wider implications across other landscapes of her life. Born prematurely and sickly, a scrawny Clarissa Anderson was the second daughter in an already broken family that would grow into even more disjointed parts. Having inherited more than a fair share of her mother's traits - a blessing to some and a curse to others-the solitary, ambitious, and self-determined Clarissa fell in and out of relationships with schools, jobs, and well-meaning, but sometimes opportunistic characters along the way. An eventual measure of success would be compromised by rigid, misguided social rules. Simultaneously cast in the role of family outcast and problem-solver, Clarissa became a convenient scapegoat for her family, inevitably at the worst possible time. Nicknamed Pearl for reasons unlike any Clarissa understood about so precious a gem, she grew and assigned her own meaning to the nickname, despite the intention of those who coined it. Emerging daily from a home where dysfunction developed into quagmires too complicated for easy explanations, Clarissa strove to build a life necessarily propped against the strength of a carefully crafted personality, one which she would refine along the way as needed for her survival. Adulthood propelled a bewildered Clarissa on a quest to resolve the myriad contradictions occurring in and around her as she traversed the complex terrains of religion, education, work, and relationships. From a distance much looked normal; but up close the trained eye could discern that something was amiss. What had almost worked for years was becoming untucked. At the dawning of midlife, Clarissa began re-evaluating her roles, and a well-disguised reality unveiled itself, beginning with Clarissa's mother, the "virtuous" matriarch whose uncharacteristic self-undoing and sudden death led to an exhausting aftermath. Daring to investigate the meaning of so much chaos, Clarissa's inquisitiveness opened a plethora of intrigues. To avert further injury, an exhausted and dejected Clarissa closed out one life to begin a new one in another city. Her shell had begun cracking under the strain of an unclaimed identity. Life came full circle when the ultimate intrigue was laid bare, demystifying a lifetime of paradox. Clarissa discovered unspoken causes and a misdirected target of family scorn. Pearl's Oyster is that rare memoir that reads like fiction - sometimes truth is stranger than fiction. This fast moving, multigenerational saga is sure to pull you in its grip, holding you fast until the last page is turned.

It would have been nice to know that there was writing and stickers on the cover for this "near mint" condition book. Other than that everything was fine.
