Allison said, 'People want biography. People want memoir. They want you to tell them that the story you're telling them is true. The thing I'm telling you is true, but it did not always happen to me.'
Allison has become an ordained story-teller like John Irving's "A Prayer for Owen Meany." I closed their stories with tears in my eyes; Doing "good work" like that is not so easy to imagine. But the great story-tellers tell us. And some rise a from a poverty and pain unimagined. It's a true pain and, to us, a true story
