Pelzer, Richard B. A Brother's Journey: Surviving a Childhood of Abuse
Time Warner Books 2005 0316727326 / 9780316727327 First UK edition-first printing Hardcover Very good Very good Book
VGC.Time Warner Books,2005.First UK edition-first printing.Blue hardback(silver lettering to the spine,small nicks on the edges of the cover) with Dj(a couple of large creases,small nicks and scratches on the Dj cover),both in VGC.Nice and clean pages with some creases and small nicks on the edges of the pages.The book is in VGC with light shelf wear.263pp including Afterword.Price un-clipped.First edition. This is another paragraph From Publishers Weekly: In this gripping, deeply troubling memoir, a follow-up to his brother David's bestselling A Child Called It, Pelzer reveals the unyielding suffering he says he experienced at the hands of his depraved mother growing up in the 1970s. Once David, the elder of the two, was removed from the household, the author, by this account, became the target of their mother's alcohol-induced rage. As Pelzer details his outward struggle to survive--learning to fall asleep with his eyes open, for example--and his internal efforts to understand and rise above his circumstances, he assaults readers with the graphic facts, told in surprisingly matter-of-fact language, about being beaten bloody for falling asleep when he was supposed to be awake, and being forbidden to bathe and forced to eat scraps from a dog bowl. Family members (including Pelzer's father), neighbors and teachers were aware of the abuse but did nothing to help, and Pelzer credits outsiders, especially his friend Ben, with finally allowing him to see himself more clearly. By looking back at--and then releasing--the image of the skinny, red-haired boy who wanted nothing more than his mother's love, Pelzer discovers his true spirit, which he shares courageously and selflessly here in the hope of healing himself, as well as raising awareness of and preventing child abuse.
