Description
Riding with the Ghost: A Memoir by Justin Taylor This unflinching memoir is a poignant exploration of a writer's complex relationship with his troubled father. When Justin Taylor was thirty, his father took his own life in a dramatic and tragic event that forever changed how he thinks of himself as a son. Through a non-linear narrative, Taylor weaves together memories of his childhood, his father's struggles with illness and depression, and his own experiences as a teacher, husband, and caregiver. With raw intimacy, he lays bare the joys and burdens of loving a family member who is struggling to cope.
