Rezensionen

Having read about David Ray in a recent Tucson newspaer I thought his memoirs would bear up to closer scrutiny... as well they did.
Having lived in both Oklahoma and Arizona, as he had, and experienced a problem with the 'father figure' in my life too his story, all though a generation apart from mine, resonanted with similar demons and passions.
I also felt as a reserach subject for a future novel the bearing of his soul and sexual proclivities would fit in with a character I had in mind and I was not disappointed in that regard either.
As for the book, well Ray just has a wonderful way of laying out a story. Told in child to adult format he lets us in to all his secrets and lies and I imagine the writing of it was therapeutic to the author.

Very practical spiritual advice on some of the hottest issues tearing families apart. May not fit every reader theologically but will still be useful. Chapter formatting is consistent and helps reader for future reference. The "Good News" boxes at the close of each chapter containing snippets of pertinent Bible verses are awesome!
