About this listen

 The Sky Was My Cathedral is a memoir of Dawn's childhood, told in alternating voices, detailing her lifelong struggle with coming out. You get to know her younger brother Devon, cousins Patricia and Tony with whom she spent Summers, her religious mother Margarita who expected life to be a fairytale, and her alcoholic and abusive father Reggie who chased them down with a shotgun.
But the stars of the show are her maternal grandparents, Ruth and Leon, who were the glue and safety net for the entire "river rat" group. Bingham gives voice to over 50 years of existence which begins in California and ends in Mexico, demonstrating how each personality was the outcome of a difficult, and often scary, upbringing. The Sky Was My Cathedral is an honest, amusing, and occasionally heartbreaking reminiscence of childhood, as well as a shining homage to her grandparents' dedication to each other, and to them.
