Sample Book Insights:
#1 I had no idea why there was so much fighting over me, but as long as I could be with my dad, I was fine. When we began to stay at my dad’s friend Marie’s house instead of with my mom, I was even happier.
#2 When I was four, my father took me to work with him one day, but my mother got hold of me and took me home with her. She punished me by burning my hand with a hot iron. I was never allowed to see my father again.
#3 I was brought up by my father, who was extremely strict. I remember the times I visited my grandmother’s house with my older brothers, and how everything was forbidden and punishable. The seeds of violence that were later to grow in my mother were sown during the beatings she received from her own mother.
#4 Lesley began to drink heavily after the divorce, and she soon became a prisoner in her own home. She was an avid pub drinker and partygoer. She was still a young woman in her early twenties, and she craved a bit of fun.

#1

I had no idea why there was so much fighting over me, but as long as I could be with my dad, I was fine. When we began to stay at my dad’s friend Marie’s house instead of with my mom, I was even happier.

#2

When I was four, my father took me to work with him one day, but my mother got hold of me and took me home with her. She punished me by burning my hand with a hot iron. I was never allowed to see my father again.

#3

I was brought up by my father, who was extremely strict. I remember the times I visited my grandmother’s house with my older brothers, and how everything was forbidden and punishable. The seeds of violence that were later to grow in my mother were sown during the beatings she received from her own mother.

#4

Lesley began to drink heavily after the divorce, and she soon became a prisoner in her own home. She was an avid pub drinker and partygoer. She was still a young woman in her early twenties, and she craved a bit of fun.

#5

I was born in 1973, into a family that was already in turmoil. My parents had been married for two years, and my father was already married to another woman. I was the spark that would ignite the whole situation, and if I hadn’t been born, my parents would have never gotten married and lived a happy life together.
Insights from Chapter 2

#1

The garage where Dad worked was a small back-street one, with bays for the cars to be raised up on when the mechanics needed to get underneath them. I loved the noise and smell of the place when they were busy working.

#2

My father loved me very much, and though he was afraid of losing me, he was also afraid of what my mother would do if he stayed with Marie. He was constantly torn between his two loves.

#3

I was treated badly by my mother, but my father was protective of me and always seemed to want to keep me close to him. My parents tried to get together again, but their attempts at reconciliation failed.
