- Description
- In this episode of “Attribution” host Bob McKinnon speaks with Emi Nietfeld, the author of Acceptance, a memoir from Penguin Press.
As a homeless teenager writing college essays in her rusty Toyota Corolla, Nietfeld saw the Ivy League as a way to escape her dysfunctional childhood. Attaining upward mobility meant first crafting the perfect resilience narrative. Nietfeld had to show she was an “overcomer,” made stronger by all she had endured. Both a chronicle and an indictment of the American Dream, “Acceptance” reveals the cost of trading a troubled past for the promise of a bright future.
After graduating from Harvard in 2015, Nietfeld worked as a software engineer at Google and Facebook. Her essays have been noted in “The Best American Essays 2021” and have appeared in The New York Times, Longreads, and Vice among others.
