"In Bad Blood, [Sage] has written a classic." -- New York Review of Books"Magnificent. . . . A superb memoir of a daughter of the 1950s who got knocked up, but not knocked down." -- Maureen Corrigan, National Public Radio's Fresh Air"Deeply affecting and beautifully written." -- People"An award-winning memoir of courageous escape." -- Harper's Bazaar"Extraordinary... Should stand out for its combination of powerful writing, wicked black humor and social history." -- Publishers Weekly Daily"Shockingly frank, but also witty, passionate, and utterly lacking self-pity -- and surprisingly uplifting." -- Kirkus Reviews"Deserves special notice... The intensely personal story will resonate with more than just Anglophiles." -- Booklist"Deserves to become a classic." -- The Independent (London)
