Show Notes
Born to survivalists on a remote Idaho mountain, Tara Westover’s world was defined by radical isolation. She had no birth certificate and never set foot in a classroom until age seventeen. This is the unforgettable story of her quest for knowledge, a journey that led her from her family's junkyard to the halls of Cambridge University. Educated is a powerful, heart-wrenching memoir about the price of seeing the world with new eyes and the fierce love that can exist alongside the deepest divides.
