An early draught of the book was named a finalist for the 2012 Bakeless literary award given out by Graywolf and Breadloaf and received the Mary Tanenbaum nonfiction award from the San Francisco Foundation. "Writing might be seen as a kind of retaliation. The key to becoming genuine in one's own eyes, however, is empathy, which is McBee's goal. He continues by saying, "Being human implies being at the mercy of others." That is also a component of aspiration. While we are not yet fully human, we can become such with effort.
