Little Dog grew up with his mother and grandmother in America. He brings us through the difficulties faced by the family as refugees with very little English.
He details the constant abuse he suffered at the hands of his mother and also brings us through the story of the traumas faced by both his mother and grandmother which have influenced his life.
Little Dog also struggles with his mother's reaction to his sexuality and the joys and heartbreak he finds in his own relationship.
This was a heartbreaking and beautiful story and had me crying within minutes.
