Not My Father's Son by Alan Cumming

challenging dark funny inspiring medium-paced

4.0

A moving story about generational trauma, accepting and healing from childhood abuse, and finding reflections of yourself in generations since passed. Alan does a great job bouncing between what lighthearted stories he's able to tell, and the darker more emotional parts of his past, as well as the past of his father and grandfather. Cried more than once, but I really appreciate the openness and honesty of his story.
