Lunatic! So the mother takes the baby sister away with Glen?


Ummm idiot, he already raped one daughter of yours....sheesh!

Agreed!! That killed me while watching this. Though I do think Glen looked at Reese as if she were his daughter, so maybe he wouldn't go after her (I mean, he never beat her)...Reese was young enough when he married Anney to just accept that he was her "daddy". Or one can only hope as this is an autobiographical account of the author's life.

The novel is semi-autobiographical. It is, however, just a novel.

You had it right with "lunatic". Anney is clearly mentally ill. She is a broken, damaged individual whose behaviors are in line with a mentally ill human being.
