Formerly Known as Tank

by Ann Miketa

The American Dream come true: working class dad makes good, Southern belle marries sports hero, immigrants become patriated in industrial heyday, kids thrive at the resultant country club, money comes to suburbia...Add enormous quantities of alcohol, marital and parental dysfunction, sibling rivalries and the results become apparent in Formerly Known as Tank. Left to grow up like a weed after divorce, economic collapse, and severe alcoholism "Tank", the narrator of this memoir, is left with severe issues with her self-concept, overwhelming depression, loneliness, hardship and poverty. Weaving personal narrative, family biography, a myriad of analyses and tangents, we watch Tank re-emerge as Ann through a new family, intensive personal and professional therapy, and will-power. In a reveal all telling tale for our times, you'll see yourself as well as what you hope will never happen to you.
