San Francisco Chronicle Review by Kathy Briccetti
Book Section on August 10, 2003
Despite the painful subject, Etienne’s writing is fresh; she ties vivid, dramatic scenes together with moments of self-reflection in just the right mix...she knows what she wants to pass on to her children. “Fear or love, that’s the choice,” she writes. Read the entire review

Coronado Eagle and Journal Review by Lara F. Cooper
November 26- December 2,2003 read review
 

Advance praise includes:
"This is a complicated portrait of a family that seemed from the outside to have everything…The writing is vivid and honest, and shows that only through understanding what has happened to you can you keep it from happening to your own children." Adair Lara, author of Hold Me Close, Let Me Go

On August 22, 2003 Marie Etienne will compete in her second National Masters Springboard Dive Competition in Honolulu, Hawaii. She will perform nine dives on both one- and three-meter boards. Her two sons will join her to cheer her on.
