Throughout the book, Giuffre beguiles, apologises and cheerfully breaks the fourth wall in an effort to soften the distaste she assumes her story will trigger ... Deft, smart ...

Narrative does what deposition can’t by taking us into the room with her. The book breathes life into Giuffre’s legal status as a victim ... Important, courageous.
