Reviews of After the Flashlight Man
After the Flashlight Man: A Memoir of Awakening is an elegantly written memoir about a violated woman’s determination to reclaim control of her emotions by defining her identity. . .It is [her] poet’s vision that makes After the Flashlight Man soar with searing imagery, fresh language, and intense reflection.”
—T.J. Forrester, Literary Potpourri
For Nancy McCabe, mixing autobiographical memory and the desire to reinvent her life spawned an intensely personal account, a coming of age story melded seamlessly with an adult awakening story, titled After the Flashlight Man: A Memoir of Awakening . . . .The book chronicles the interconnections between seemingly unrelated — and sometimes surreal— episodes in her life.
