The author begins her memoir with a simple, yet striking statement, "I was 8 points on fire." At first glance, one might think that the author is speaking
metaphorically, but we find out that she literally catches fire while boiling
hot dogs at age three, suffering horrible burns. As the novel progresses,
we see that the idea of "fire" is never far away. Discuss how the author
uses the symbol of fire to illustrate the unpredictability of her childhood. Is
it a suitable metaphor to describe her life? Why? Make sure to cite
evidence from the book, and also provide the page #.*
