AUTHOR
SUMMARY
"[De Milly] is not always convincing--as, for instance, in certain unguarded moments when he adopts his abuser's point of view--but the effect is disturbing; as, indeed, it should be....The sympathy he manages to generate in the reader for his father when he is eventually castrated is a measure of the extent to which it is possible to overcome an imposed victimhood. That his anger is tempered by love is, perhaps, the most revealing aspect of his book."Milly, Walter De, 3rd is the author of 'In My Father's Arms A True Story of Incest' with ISBN 9780299165109 and ISBN 0299165108.
