A griping, tense, and compelling sad story peppered with pockets of humour. A story relevant today as it will be tomorrow in the abuse of children from a man so sick he refuses to shoulder the blame and responsibilities. His lust and greed torments him to ignore the law and family responsibilities. A violent, sad story that could be true as one in four families suffers from abuse of some kind (National Health Service Publication 2013). Blame, written with accepted mannerisms blended with incidences of horror and disbelief, the theme is of abuse and domestic violence, anger, and hate, creating disappointments and anxiety in a family living with a man with bipolar a sickness of the mind who blames everyone apart from himself for his own actions. A fascinating read of textbook quality of family life beautifully observed with humour and sadness that will appeal to both adults and children.
