The sins of the fathers' is a recurring theme in this painful and sad book. A daughter's unrelenting love despite years of abuse is the second theme and how the author, Jeanne Hall, found the courage to use the cruel and indifferent behaviour of her father to build a different life for herself and her children. Anyone who has had a traumatic childhood will find themselves crying when reading this poignant book where a father's love cannot be bought, bartered nor sold but at the end, a daughter's love cannot be destroyed no matter what. The narrative is bitterly funny in parts and excruciatingly sad in others. Overall, a fine debut by a new author.
