Meifi can provide no detail of the actual attacks (she has no memory of them), she has little to say about the racial controversy her case ignited and she only briefly mentions the fact that, during the writing of this book, the convictions of her attackers were vacated after another man confessed to the crime. But these are not necessarily omissions; they are simply not central to Trisha Meifi’s highly readable story of tragedy and, ultimately, triumph. I Am the Central Park Jogger is not just a book for New Yorkers curious to finally hear from “The Jogger”; it’s an inspirational tale of overcoming enormous obstacles and getting back on the road again. –John Moe, Amazon.com
