The Glass Castle: Jeannette Walls

Description

In The Glass Castle, Walls chronicles her upbringing at the hands of eccentric, nomadic parents--Rose Mary, her frustrated-artist mother, and Rex, her brilliant, alcoholic father. To call the elder Walls's childrearing style laissez faire would be putting it mildly. Though Walls has well earned the right to complain, at no point does she play the victim. In fact, Walls respects her parents' knack for making hardships feel like adventures, and her love for them--despite their overwhelming self-absorption--resonates from cover to cover.

This book was wonderful. Walls sensitive treatment of her upbringing and candor about her family is sheer brilliance. Never self-pitying, Walls shows how one little girl can become a great woman both in spite of and because of her difficult childhood.
