The parental subject matters of this memoir are unlike anything I have ever read. The only way I can possibly describe Rose Mary and Rex are a cross between granola hippies and conservative hillbillies. This book had my emotions constantly at war - one second this family would be resilient and heartfelt, the next selfish and damaging. What a true, raw look at the complexities of humans, love, family, and growth. I highly recommend listening to Jeannette read this book as well.

Aside from being a fine book in both languages, Schloss aus Glas was a good education. Reading a book alongside its translation taught me a about how translators think, and what I should keep in mind as I continue to develop my craft.
