Description

A wrenching and redemptive coming-of-age memoir about growing up in a hazardous home and finding salvation in geek culture. Joseph Earl Thomas recounts his difficult childhood, marked by failure and violence, and the ways in which he found escape through fantasy worlds. In this powerful and unflinching account, Thomas explores how cruelty can permeate our environments and the cycle of hostility that can be so hard to break. Yet even in the depths of isolation, there are moments of joy and connection that offer a way out. Sink is a moving and thought-provoking exploration of what it means to lose the desire to fit in and find community, love, and salvation on your own terms.
