Critique Regarding Books The Makings of a Fatherless Child

I struggled over whether or not to leave a review for this book. I have mixed feelings about it. I have issues with much of the narrative and some of the dialogue. First the good...This is a dark, gritty, brutal story. A coming of age tale in a poverty stricken city. Amel has known nothing but hard times his whole life. His father wants nothing to do with him, his mother is abusive and too wrapped up in herself to care or notice that Amel's clothes stopped fitting him years ago. He has hopes and

The Makings of a Fatherless Child by Chandler AlexanderThirteen year old Amel River is very poor growing up in a very dysfunctional home in Mississippi. His Mother is unstable and not very kid, his Father wants nothing to do with him. His sister is not the kindest person but he loves his young nephew.

Before he is even out of high school, he suffers unimaginable abuse from his family, friends and, most tragically, himself. Amel is a truly disturbed boy and, the more you read on,

Gritty, realistic and harsh; but an important work, and telling a story that needs to be told.The first thing many people will react to in Chandler Alexanders 2015 narrative fiction is the language. Not what youre likely to hear in suburban America unless its coming from a social media source. Colorful to say the least, almost to the point of being distracting. The F bomb is dropped with Big Lebowski frequency and there is enough screaming and tense domestic showdowns to make most people squirm.
