It is a harrowing account in which the writer focuses on telltale facts and relates instructive personal experiences, all the while soberly revealing her own emotions when, for example, she sees her parents for the last time, in May 1986, while she is on a trip with her French husband and their two children. She now possesses a French passport. A big party takes place, but the next day her mother discreetly tells her that it would be best if they left. \u201cOur presence was a menace for my parents,\u201d she specifies, \u201cand for the whole family.\u201d The last image of her mother is a \u201cslight form\u201d in a pagne, \u201ca little silhouette disappearing at the bend in the road.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The American magazine The Arts Fuse has published a critique of John Taylor about my latest book &#8216;Cockroaches,
