In this episode 387, we feature Dana Trent and her memoir, Between Two Trailers, a powerful story about a girl who escapes her childhood as a preschool drug dealer in rural Indiana, to become a graduate of Duke Divinity School. Publishers Weekly calls the memoir a “blend of grit and hope.” Other reviews invoke the phrases: “luscious prose,” “ludicrously good plot,” “unflinching truth,” “full of resilience and redemption,” and “a memoir in the vein of great literary coming-of-age narratives.” The book is a fast, surprising, shocking, and inspiring read.
