Consent: A Memoir

Jill Ciment

A woman married her teacher, who began the relationship when she was seventeen, and reconsiders it decades on.

Jill Ciment revisits her own memoir of forty years earlier, in which she described falling in love with a married art teacher nearly thirty years her senior. She asks what she left out at the time and whether the story she told was true, and the result is short, unsparing and genuinely unsettled about its own answers.

Jill Ciment, Consent: a memoir. A good short book on how you can have a creepy life for decades, and not be so aware of it.
