Book review: I am, I am, I am by Maggie O’Farrell

Maggie O’Farrell’s I am, I am, I am is a ‘memoir with a difference’, which maps the author’s life in vividly-written chapters about ‘near-death’ experiences. Taking its name from a Sylvia Plath quote, this book is an honest and thought-provoking work, and despite the serious nature of the material, is proudly life-affirming too.
