About this listen

Kim Miller is an immaculately put-together woman with a great career, a loving boyfriend, and a tidy apartment on Manhattan’s Upper West Side. You would never guess that Kim grew up behind the closed doors of her family’s idyllic Long Island house, navigating between teetering stacks of aging newspapers, broken computers, and boxes upon boxes of unused junk festering in every room - the product of her father’s painful and unending struggle with hoarding. In this moving coming-of-age story, Kim brings to life her rat-infested home, her childhood consumed by concealing her father’s shameful secret from friends, and the emotional burden that ultimately led to an attempt to take her own life. And in beautiful prose, Miller sheds light on her complicated yet loving relationship with her parents that has thrived in spite of the odds.

Coming Clean is a story about recognizing where we come from and the relationships that define us - and about finding peace in the homes we make for ourselves.

so beautiful and honest

I read her other book, Beautiful Bodies, first and fell in love with her honesty and vulnerability. This book goes even farther into these depths.

surviving a hoarding family

My stress levels were high throughout the entire book & yet I could not put it down. It's amazing what people can survive. The book gave me some insight into how a hoarding disorder cannot simply be 'controlled' and that the people who have it hide it and appear to be functioning at a reasonably normal level in society. This book was compelling, kind and informative. I highly recommend it.
