Details
Spending more than seven years on the New York Times bestseller list and now a major motion picture, The Glass Castle: A Memoir tells the story of the dysfunctional yet loving family that gave author Jeannette Walls the determination to create a successful life of her own.
Meet Rex Walls, Jeannette’s charismatic father who, when sober, captivated his children’s imaginations with vibrant stories about his past adventures. Her mother, Rose Mary, is a self-proclaimed “excitement addict” who would rather paint than be bothered by menial tasks like cooking or cleaning. The Walls family lived like nomads, never staying in one place longer than a couple months. However, when money runs out and the excitement of the road fades, the disfunction rises. Rex starts drinking, stealing the grocery money, and disappearing for days. Jeannette and her siblings must find a way to stand on their own.
Moving and refreshingly honest, The Glass Castle: A Memoir is a great read for high school students.
