The Glass Castle, is a memoir by Jeanette Walls which recalls her childhood. Her parents had very different ideals and their stubborn noncomformity was what ultimately led to their downfall. It talks about the dysfunction of the family and how Jeanette and her other 3 brothers and sisters had to support one another in order to leave the family.
This book was written to show people about the struggles of life and how everything can collapse all of a sudden. It was written for people who need to learn and value life and understand how hard it may be. I chose to read this book because I feel like it has moral lessons in it and it sounds very interesting to me how kids could live and support themselves with the absense of care from their parents. After reading this, I hope to gain a better appreciation of what I have and how truly lucky and privelaged some people are and that they need to appreciate it more.
