Sitting at my laptop in 2019, crying to PJ Harvey. This was the moment I decided to let more than twenty years of anger pour out onto the keyboard.
PJ Harvey: Kamikaze
What would you do if someone cut you out of their life for more than twenty years and then suddenly wanted to get back in touch? Would you welcome them with open arms? What if it's your sister?
My memoir Every Track is a Scar: A Mixtape Memoir of Goth, Grunge and Growing Up opens with this track and exactly that dilemma. Kicking and screaming on the inside, PJ Harvey's Kamikaze reflected perfectly how distraught I was when I found out my sister wanted to make contact after two decades of silence.
