The Glass Castle: A Memoir
by Jeannette Walls
Undecided (4/11/2007)
I can't decide if I am overjoyed that her parents were courageous enough to live their lives the way they wanted and raise their children accordingly or that her childhood is the perfect reason to allow abortion on demand. However, what may be more important is the social commentary on the homeless. There is excellent support for how society has placed the whole homeless "problem" out of context. Shouldn't we, those of us productive members of society who have jobs and have money to spend on frivolous books, agree that those who chose to live without any means of support to do so and encourage their life experience by eliminating any tax dollars that may be diverted their way so as to reduce the hardship they seek? The obvious answer is in the affirmative. From now on, I will go out of my way to spit upon those attempting to panhandle on street corners while I hang my $20,000 gold watch out the window of my Bentley. God Bless America.
