FATHER- SON RELATIONSHIPS GONE TO THE DOGS! (03/22/2012)

 BOOK ALERT!         JUST UNLEASHED!




      

THE GOOD FATHER by Noah Hawley was released this month. It's an interesting and thoughtful book and my second father-criminal son theme. I recently read DEFENDING JACOB  by William Landay which is more of a courtroom drama, again with a father-son interaction. 

In THE GOOD FATHER, the father of a man who assassinates a presidential candidate tries to make sense of his son's crime.

 Believe it or not, the book is a mystery, but most importantly tells a poignant story of the relationship between a father and the boy he left behind in his first, failed marriage.

Reviewers called it "an intense psychological novel that will haunt readers
for a long time"

Put this book on your To Be Read list. A definite page-turner, "a moving  literary novel."
