Near-Life Experiences: ... a memoir in stories

By Nanette Jordan

In this, the third in her memoir trilogy, we get an intimate look

into Nanette Jordan's unique San Francisco voice. Little Nanette and

grown-up Nanette take the reader on all new true adventures with a

few essays, and poems thrown in for color. We see more of Nanette's

unconventional life and the influence of her Jewish artist left-leaning

parents and how these qualities play out through childhood and

beyond. Nanette digs deep to tackle her childhood perception of her

family's experiences in The Holocaust and other difficult subjects. Later,

her assorted cult experiences have their own kind of absurd logic, but

then so does her immersion in the cult of Argentine Tango. Nanette

makes the logical seem bizarre, and the preposterous seem groovy.
