A very engrossing memoir, the author tells a wonderful story, heartbreaking at some points but very rewarding.

Great book but waiting this guy to grow up & get a positive idle in his life.

A touching memoir of a boy growing up without a father, and his search for male role models--and answers--in his life. Well written, with some beautiful phrasing. Funny and poignant. The author is a reporter for the LA Times, and has won a Pulitzer for a series of articles he wrote.
