Janine Avril on here! podcast

While in her twenties Janine Avril learned a shocking family secret--a secret that her family created to protect her from the truth about her past much in the same way a parent uses a nightlight to protect their child from  the dark.  When Janine was twelve, growing up in the New York suburb of Roslyn, New York, her mother was diagnosed with a deadly cancer and died three years later. While a junior at Cornell University, Janine learned that her father was terminally ill. Five years later she receieved an unexpected phone call from her uncle, forcing her to re-evaluate her childhood and to not accept things as they appeared on the surface.

Below, Janine talks to here! about her family secret and memoir. Click here to hear what she has to say about the dark corners of her past she had to explore and the illuminating truth she discovered.
