Praise for the previous edition'Sue Erikson Bloland writes with keen wisdom and wonderful rich detail about her famous father, her highly accomplished mother, her family secrets, and the struggle to find her essential self in the proximity and psychic heat of their fame. I wish I had read this book as a teenager; she could have saved me a dozen years of therapy.'Rosanne Cash, daughter of Johnny Cash'This is a remarkable, deeply captivating exercise in self-reflection and self-understanding. Sue Bloland excavates the complex, layered dynamics of the family that her prominent parents forged. She arrives at unprecedented depth and remarkable insights.'Lawrence J. Friedman, author of Identity’s Architect: A Biography of Erik H. Erikson; Visiting Professor, History of Science, Harvard University'Sue Erikson Bloland’s memoir is, at once, a heart-rending account of family tragedy in the context of driven aspirations and profound achievement and an illumination of fame as a powerful dynamic process. She transforms pain-filled experience into personal, and now shared, truth.'M. Gerard Fromm, Ph.D., ABPP, Evelyn Stefansson Nef Director, Erikson Institute for Education and Research, Austen Riggs Center'Drawing on often painful experiences as the child of celebrated parents, Sue Erikson Bloland illuminates how fame affects the dazzled public, those closest to the celebrity, and the celebrity himself.'Howard Gardner, author of Changing Minds; Hobbs Professor of Education and Cognition, Harvard Graduate School of Education
