By any account hers has been a nightmarish life redeemed only by her storytelling talent developed as a child at her grandmother's knees. At 4 she was sexually abused. By the time she was a teenager she had succumbed to drugs and alcohol, found herself pregnant and had an abortion with complications so severe as to convince her doctor that she would never have children. For nearly two decades she was an addict and a victim of spousal abuse. And yet: at age 34, she graduated from Washington College in Maryland with a perfect grade point average, winning the school's Sophie Kerr Prize and$54,000, awarded to the member of the graduating class showing the greatest literary promise. Christine Lincoln's is a magnificent story of overcoming the vicissitudes of life in extremis through dogged perseverance.
A deep reader of literary women as diverse as Toni Morrison and Sylvia Plath, Christine Lincoln has found her voice as a writer of startling originality; she is the real thing.
