MarkPSadler | Jan 17, 2016 |   Having lived in both Oklahoma and Arizona, as he had, and experienced a problem with the 'father figure' in my life too his story, all though a generation apart from mine, resonanted with similar demons and passions. I also felt as a reserach subject for a future novel the bearing of his soul and sexual proclivities would fit in with a character I had in mind and I was not disappointed in that regard either. As for the book, well Ray just has a wonderful way of laying out a story. Told in child to adult format he lets us in to all his secrets and lies and I imagine the writing of it was therapeutic to the author.

David Ray's soul search, recounted in this powerful illustrated memoir, is a Dickensian tale -- encompassing a childhood in an orphanage, an endless series of abusive "uncles," and an adolescence haunted by a sadistic guardian, followed by a tumultuous adulthood marked equally by tragedy and triumph. With rare candor and unsentimentality, Ray -- winner of the William Carlos Williams Award, the Marianne Moore Award, and the Allen Ginsberg Poetry Award -- writes about finding hope within a society that first generates abusers then empowers them, ignoring victims' pleas for help and enforcing their silence.
