Raw, honest, heartbreaking voice. A must read for all Americans.
Published by Harps , 5 years ago
I loved this book. The topic seemed “heavy” when I read about it, but don’t let that deter you. This book will surprise and delight all readers sensitive about the struggle of all boys to grow up in the shadow of a powerful, domineering mother, and in a country that doesn’t fully value its citizens. A wonderful, honest, triumphant story of how to grow tall and strong like a vine, without the proper structures to hold you up, and doing it anyway.
