Throughout the collection, Sue William Silverman focuses on pivotal, often fleeting moments that defined the course of her life, such as a fraught family vacation; an evening watching the Chippendale dancers‚Äô extravaganza; a Pac-Man-and-whisky-fueled rumination on failed relationships; and the way melodramatic movies such as \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eRome Adventure\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e shape an adolescent‚Äôs idea of love.
