Glass Castle Blog

Oct 28, 2008 by Catherine Kolongowski

Welcome to the Glass Castle Blog! Please feel free to post questions or comments regarding the Glass Castle. If in your comments you include remarks which might give away part of the story, please include a ****SPOILER**** alert so that if a person has not read that far in the book, it does not ruin the story for them. The first story Walls tells of her childhood is that of her burning herself severely at age three, and her father dramatically takes her from the hospital: "You're safe now". Why do you think she opens with that story, and how does it set the stage for the rest of the memoir?

Frankly, I was disappointed with the Glass Castle. I'm curious how someone of her age could have such a detailed memory of events at three years old? While I'm certain all the events are true, one must wonder if they have been "enhanced for dramatic effect" similar to movie disclaimers. The anecdote about the burning incident is only one of a series of parental neglect, it does set the stage for a number of vignettes emphasizing self reliance, and appreciation for the smaller things in life.

I've been looking for a good book to get into, I will check this one out for sure. All I could think of when I read about the little girl being burned was when my cousin got severely burned at the age of 5. She pulled a pot of boiling water onto her, how terrifying. She is fine now, as an adult she still has scars on her stomach and arms. I'll have to read the book but perhaps the father say's your safe now because he wants to protect her from the world and how they would react to her being disfigurement from the burns. Now i'm intriged. Thanks! baby nursery bedding

The Walls family is probably unlike any other you’ve read about. Jeannette spends most of her childhood traveling around the country whenever the family gets in trouble, eating surplus food that they can find, playing games, and searching for a way to “make it big”. When they settle down, they are unhappier than they ever were before and in the end, each sibling must make their own way in life. At first, I was amazed that anyone could ever live this way, more so that Jeannette seemed content with her adventurous life, although perhaps that’s just her memory speaking. It was clear to me that her parents, while completely crazy, loved her and her siblings. I think it’s moving that the book is titled The Glass Castle - the name of the house that her father always planned to build for the family, though he never manages it and becomes a simple drunk instead. Underneath this veneer of thrilling adventure, there is a strong sense of unhappiness, and as the book goes along, the unhappiness just gets stronger and stronger and I really started to feel the frustration of these children. It is certainly a tribute to them that at least three of them turned out to be successful adults, while the fourth is an unknown quantity. This is a wonderful memoir, a triumph of the human spirit over adversity. It made me very angry at times, particularly given the incompetence of the Walls parents, but I think it was a worthy read. I can certainly see why its popularity endures.

I agree with the first poster in how could a woman of that age remember all the way back to age three?? I severely burnt my hand at age 16 (I'm 40ish now) and barley remember the details of how it happened. Maybe she began with that (tragic) story because that's how she viewed her life. Tragic.

I feel sorry for burning her self at the age of three. It must be traumatic. I am sure her dad really feel bad about it and she want her to feel comfortable that's why he said you're safe now.

Posted by Jiel on June 03, 2009 at 05:17 AM EDT #

The childhood stories, especially of Walls severely burning herself is the best part of the book.

Posted by ProReader on June 09, 2009 at 12:28 AM EDT #

I feel bad for the child and i think the reason why her father said that is because she wants her to feel that everything will be fine.

I feel sorry for burning her self at the age of three. It must be traumatic. I am sure her dad really feel bad about it and she want her to feel comfortable that's why he said you're safe now.

Posted by Jiel on June 03, 2009 at 05:17 AM EDT #

The childhood stories, especially of Walls severely burning herself is the best part of the book.

Posted by ProReader on June 09, 2009 at 12:28 AM EDT #

I feel bad for the child and i think the reason why her father said that is because she wants her to feel that everything will be fine.

I wasn't too excited with Glass Castle because I could not see how someone who is three years old had such a vivid memory of the events happening to her.
