[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I HATED that book. It was a self-indulgent load of wannabe-titillating loathsome garbage. If I were the author's brother I wouldn't speak to him either. [/quote] I understand this reaction, but I don't identify with it. I just always go back to the fact that he lost both of his parents, in his 20's, within months of each other. His siblings were too screwed up to take on the guardianship of their youngest sibling and let it default to him. I remember feeling his devastation jump off the page. I would want to write a long, self-indulgent book too.[/quote]
