Overview
"Good Pity is a family memoir that follows the narrator and siblings' journey through their mother's depression and gambling addiction, and their survival through the abuse from a stressed military father. Their journey spans over several states, both physical and emotional based on their father's assignments and their mother's evolving addiction. The children are challenged to take care of each other during the times when their parents are unable to do so. This memoir touches on how we learn to function through the dysfunction of our family and how we the children find reconciliation with our parents and our up and down childhood experience." --Abstract.
