Journal Entry 1 by Mundoo from Hindmarsh Island, South Australia Australia on Tuesday, December 5, 2006
When Daniel Stone was a child, he was the only white boy in a native Eskimo village where his mother taught, and he was teased mercilessly because he was different. He fought back, the baddest of the bad kids: stealing, drinking, robbing and cheating his way out of the Alaskan bush - where he honed his artistic talent, fell in love with a girl and got her pregnant. To become part of a family, he reinvented himself - jettisoning all that anger to become a docile, devoted husband and father. Fifteen years later, when we meet Daniel again, he is a comic book artist. His wife teaches Dante's Inferno at a local college; his daughter, Trixie, is the light of his life - and a girl who only knows her father as the even-tempered, mild-mannered man he has been her whole life. Until, that is, she is date raped! and Daniel finds himself struggling, again, with a powerlessness and a rage that may not just swallow him whole, but destroy his family and his future.

An easy read by an author that I enjoy.

I did see the ending coming but that didn't stop the enjoyment I had in reading this book. A good story about family dynamics and cause and effect. Oh how the choices we make in life has such reprecussions on others around us.

Just noting that I have pulled this book from TBR pile for my lunch time reading pleasure. There is a note that says to return this book to Mundoo when I finish reading. It's sorta fun finding notes I've left myself months ago!

I've given up on this book. I couldn't connect with the characters and it so passed believability for me at one point that I had to put it down. Will put this in a spot for next time Mundoo and I are able to get together.
