The Glass Castle, Written by Jeannette Walls is a tornado of emotions, starting with sorrow and having little touches of happiness throughout. Rex walls (the father) portrays and shows us this idea of an abusive father who can‘t keep his promises which inflicts pathos to any reader. This shows us how even in our own life there are many issues, but this idea of catharsis we feel whist reading makes us realize how good we actually have it.
