memoir

I just finished Rebecca Walker's new memoir, Baby Love--it's coming out this spring. The way the mother in the book is depicted tripped me out--brought up a lot of those old questions about memoir-writing. What is the difference between telling your own truth/holding people accountable for their actions and selling them down the river?

I feel like I have to read it, but don't want to buy it, also. The mother...is that Alice Walker? Rebecca Walker is her daughter, yes?
