After her mother's death, Alyse Myers covets only one thing: a wooden box that sits in the back of a closet. Its items have been maintained from her for her entire life. When she was thirteen years old her mother promised she would have the box, "when I'm dead. In fact, it will likely be my present to you."
Growing up in Queens in the 1960s and '70s, Alyse always yearned to get more in life, while her mother settled for an unhappy marriage, an unsatisfying job, and eventually a joyless lifetime. Her daddy drifts in and out of their home. You can find harrowing fights, abject cruelty, and endless uncertainty. Throughout her childhood Alyse adamantly rejects everything about her mother's lifestyle, leaving her mother to ask "Who do you think you are?"
An individual portrait of an mother and daughter, Who DO YOU CONSIDER You Are? explores the profound and poignant revelations that frequently will come to light only following a parent has died. Balancing childhood memories with adult observations, Alyse Myers creates a riveting and deeply moving narrative.
