Product Information

From Erin Keane, editor in chief at Salon , comes a touching memoir about the search for truths in the stories families tell. In 1970, Erin Keane's mother ran away from home for the first time. She was thirteen years old. Over the next several years, and under two assumed identities, she hitchhiked her way across America, experiencing freedom, hardship, and tragedy. At fifteen, she met a man in New York City and married him. He was thirty-six. Though a deft balance of journalistic digging, cultural criticism, and poetic reimagining, Keane pieces together the true story of her mother's teenage years, questioning almost everything she's been told about her parents and their relationship. Along the way, she also considers how pop culture has kept similar narratives alive in her. At stake are some of the most profound questions we can ask ourselves: What's true? What gets remembered? Who gets to tell the stories that make us who we are? Whether it's talking about painful family history, #MeToo, Star Wars, true crime forensics, or The Gilmore Girls , Runaway is an unforgettable look at all the different ways the stories we tell--both personal and pop cultural--create us.

Reviews
One of The Millions'' "Most Anticipated" books of 2022 One of Los Angeles Times'' "Most Anticipated Books of the Fall" "This eagle-eyed inquiry hits the mark." --Publishers Weekly "Keane''s prose soars, and her journalistic instincts shine." -- Kirkus Reviews "[This] memoir expands beyond the personal to cast that same piercing gaze on cultural myths, from the obsession with nymphets to the demonization of runaways. What results is a deeply felt family memoir that also functions as an exegesis of our social texts." --Lorraine Berry, Los Angeles Times (roundup) "A beautifully written memoir that introduces a fresh, compelling voice." --Silas House, Garden & Gun "Keane''s debut memoir, Runaway, is the harrowing personal story of how one girl survived on her own, traversing America, hitchhiking from Aspen to Boston to New York City. It''s also a critical examination of the cultural forces that have shaped the way we view, and tell, the stories of adolescent girls." --Hope Reese, The Cut "Erin Keane''s Runaway: Notes on the Myths That Made Me is a powerful, incendiary take on our contemporary notions of victimhood. A dazzling page-turner of a book, Keane''s deep-dive into her mother''s life as a runaway child bride offers a potent indictment of our culture''s age-old penchant for looking the other way when it comes to the trials and tribulations of girlhood." --Ken Womack, CultureSonar "Among the jeweled facets of Runaway is Keane''s writing, but her skill as a poet and essayist is accompanied by a journalist''s rigor. . . . Runaway lures us with a fairy tale, but as we draw closer, we begin to see the contours of a world that is more complex but no less fearsome." --Lorraine Berry, Los Angeles Times (full review) "Erin Keane''s Runaway is a moving and extremely important piece of contemporary memoir that deserves to be read by all. Keane is a brilliant storyteller, who bravely walks us through her beautifully complicated family dynamic, with prose that is razor sharp, informative and powerful enough to make us reexamine ourselves and everything we subscribe to. I highly recommend." -- D Watkins, New York Times Bestselling author of Where Tomorrow''s Aren''t Promised and The Cook Up "In Runaway , Erin Keane sands down the shimmering outlines of teenage identity, making opaque the secrets and inventions that formed her family''s origin and, in parallel, much of this last century''s most beloved media. Exploding her own personal mythologies over a series of essays that graze topics as disparate as Gilmore Girls and Star Wars, Keane brings critical shrewdness to the vision-obscuring status quo of patriarchy." --Sadie Dupuis, of Speedy Ortiz and Sad13, and author of Mouthguard "I''m not able to pin down my own life in essays as clear and beautiful as Erin Keane has here. But reading Runaway time and again, will be the learning and motivation I need. That we all do." --Kevin Smokler, author of Brat Pack America: A Love Letter to 80s Teen Movies, One of The Millions' "Most Anticipated" books of 2022 One of Los Angeles Times' "Most Anticipated Books of the Fall" "This eagle-eyed inquiry hits the mark." --Publishers Weekly "Keane's prose soars, and her journalistic instincts shine." -- Kirkus Reviews "[This] memoir expands beyond the personal to cast that same piercing gaze on cultural myths, from the obsession with nymphets to the demonization of runaways.

In intelligent, brave prose, Keane reconstructs her mother''s story into existence and challenges readers to examine the gendered dismissal of those we call runaways." --Emily Dziuban, Booklist (Starred review) "Among the jeweled facets of Runaway is Keane''s writing, but her skill as a poet and essayist is accompanied by a journalist''s rigor. . . . Runaway lures us with a fairy tale, but as we draw closer, we begin to see the contours of a world that is more complex but no less fearsome." --Lorraine Berry, Los Angeles Times (full review) "More than a memoir, Erin Keane''s Runaway is a journey of uncovering--reexamining family mythologies, cultural touchstones, and the identities we assume and are given.
