Yeah, I understand and share your ambivalence about Skloot's major presence in the book--the book was/should be/should have been first about Lacks and second about her family, and at times, Skloot's closer to second. But I recognize that as being a byproduct of her effort to produce a book as honest and transparent as she could make it, to not pretend to be a neutral voice of God, not an ego-thing, so in conjunction with the fact that Skloot was obviously trying to get some justice for the family, I forgive.
