""The Glass Castle" is the saga of the restless, indomitable Walls
family, led by a grand eccentric and his tempestuous artist wife.
Jeannette Walls has survived poverty, fires, and near starvation to
triumph. She has written this amazing tale with honesty and
love."-- Patricia Bosworth, author of "Anything Your Little Heart
Desires" and "Diane Arbus: A Biography"
"Jeannette Walls has carved a story with precision and grace out of
one of the most chaotic, heartbreaking childhoods ever to be set
down on the page. This deeply affecting memoir is a triumph in
every possible way, and it does what all good books should: it
affirms our faith in the human spirit."-- Dani Shapiro, author of
"Family History"
"Just read the first pages of "The Glass Castle" by Jeannette
Walls, and I defy you not to go on. It's funny and sad and quirky
and loving. I was incredibly touched by it."-- Dominick Dunne,
author of "The Way We Lived Then: Recollections of a Well-Known
Name Dropper"
