Her mother was an artist who abhorred domestic routine and the chores of motherhood: Why should I cook a meal that will be gone in an hour when I can do a painting that will last forever?

Jeanette Walls narrates her nomadic and adventurous childhood with her dreaming, brilliant but alcoholic parents.</p><p>At the age of seventeen she escapes on a Greyhound bus to New York with her older sister; her younger siblings follow later. After pursuing the education and civilisation her parents sought to escape, Jeanette eventually succeeds in her quest for the mundane, middle class existence she had always craved. In her apartment, overlooked by a portrait of someone elses ancestor she recounts poignant remembered images of star watching with her father, juxtaposed with recollections of irregular meals, accidents and police-car chases and reveals her complex feelings of shame, guilt, pity and pride toward her parents.</p>...9780748115563_Little, Brown Book Grouplibro_electonico_a5070a62-a1e4-49b4-bc64-18dfd6aa969a_9780748115563;9780748115563_9780748115563Jeannette WallsInglésMéxicohttps://getbook.kobo.com/koboid-prod-public/hachetteuk-epub-fd372685-b55c-489e-9363-f0d0feab793f.epub2010-02-04T00:00:00+00:00Little, Brown Book Group
