À propos de cet audio

Pearl Tull is nearing the end of her life but not of her memory. It was a Sunday night in 1944 when her husband left the little row house on Baltimore's Calvert Street, abandoning Pearl to raise their three children alone: Jenny, high-spirited and determined, nurturing to strangers but distant to those she loves; the older son, Cody, a wild and incorrigible youth possessed by the lure of power and money; and sweet, clumsy Ezra, Pearl's favorite, who never stops yearning for the perfect family that could never be his own. Now Pearl and her three grown children have gathered together again - with anger, hope, and a beautiful, harsh, and dazzling story to tell.

This story shows how much influence a parent’s actions affect their children’s lives right into adulthood. It can stunt emotional growth, cause a repeat or cycle of abuse and leave them scarred mentally for life. I found this book quite sad. It was performed well but not a book I would recommend to anyone personally.

Very morose story

this story can be a bit confusing at times and also a little upsetting. however...as the characters develop you become immensely attached to all of the them. it is a story of a real family and how they finally learn to appreciate one another. very touching.

A marvelous book

Story is entirely about a family who are awful to each other. Dad simply walks out when the kids are small. One brother steals another's fiance, mom is verbally abusive. Nothing positive happens really through the whole book.

I had trouble finishing the book
