Abundance is heart-wrenching and evoked so many feelings for me. This story follows Henry and moves back and forth between the present and past focusing on the role that money has played in his life. Henry moves through the highs and lows of being financially stable to living out of his truck with his son, Junior. This book explores the effect poverty has on a person and what it might drive you to do, specifically through the lens of masculinity.
Guanzon's character development is phenomenal and I felt myself being both pulled in and repulsed by Henry throughout the book.
