Anticipated release date of November 25, 2027
A story filled with generational trauma, dysfunction and mistakes. It all begins with two strangers that should have never crossed paths. It spirals in despair and chaos when tragedy struck not long after the second world war ended, but not long enough for the economy to recover.
Although the novel is titled after the father, it is the mother that is the hero of the story. It shows how her life unfolded with two alcoholic parents, then suddenly reduced to only one. How she and her older sister had to raise the other children in a city where alcoholism, spousal abuse, child neglect and crime were infested throughout the neighborhoods of Boston.
Psychologists say that one’s life is formed from the earliest experiences of childhood. This lead Maryann down a path that was all too familiar, one that she did her best to avoid, but her toxic empathy was unable to overcome the notion that she could fix the broken man. He came from an upper crust family from the prominent side of town. She came from the wrong side of the tracks.
Not long after they were married, Maryann realized that she had made a huge mistake. But it was too late. She was pregnant with their first born. Her life flashed before her eyes when she told him the news. He was angry and blamed her for becoming pregnant, accusing her for ruining his career because he was trying to start a business. He did not have the time, money, the attributes or desire to be a father, let alone to be a dad. She was devastated, but refused to let him or anyone else see her sorrows. She hid her pain very well. . . too well.
Modern society has attempted to state that there can be two truths. This is not only a misconception, but an outright lie. There can be two opinions, but only a single truth. Ignorance to history or events, does not allow for a second truth.
