The Glass Castle By Jeannette Walls Sparknotes

The Glass Castle is a memoir from 2005 by Jeannette Walls. In my opinion, the author emotionally described in her book her childhood, in which she suffered from hunger, misery and even homelessness. Through the fault of their own parents, who stubbornly refused to stabilize and provide good living conditions for their children, Jeannette Walls went through a Gehenna in school and the environment in which she grew up. Only thanks to her own determination she achieved professional success and happiness in her personal life. The title refers to the long-held intention of her father to build his dream house, a "glass castle".

It meant that it was a place where there were no rules or boundaries where they could do what they wanted to do. It also means that his ghostly presence was noticed. Confidence and fascination convey the unique experiences that Jeannette shared with her father. I think that this book describes stories that suits many families in those days and also present ones, I think that many people can identify with Jeannette's story. At the end of the book, we can also see that the heroine of the book always had faith in her father, even when he failed her many times. When he left, she still believed him. Love for a father has never disappeared and will always be an inspiration in her life. At the end, Jeannette carefully shows the reader that "the boundary between turbulence and order" has never been
