Rendition To Books Family Pictures
Spanning forty years, Family Pictures follows the conflict between husband and wife, over a beautiful autistic child. Randall is both angel and demon. His father, David, a coolly rational psychiatrist, wants him placed in an institution; his mother, Lainey, insists on keeping him at home. Yet it is not just David and Lainey who are struggling to come to terms with a difficult and unpredictable child; there are five other children in the family, each of them coping with the dramas and rifts surrounding them, each of them affected by Randall.Particularize Books Concering Family Pictures

Merely okay - I finished the book without caring about any of the charactersI really disliked this book. David had no redeeming qualities and I couldnt root for him at any point in the story. Everyone was so damaged and never overcomes their circumstances. The sexual tension between family members was confusing, and left me constantly tensed that something was going to happen between them. Overall I found it very depressing.
This is a story about a semi-dysfunctional but loving family. I really enjoyed this book. I like how this book is more character-driven than a plot-driven novel. It's about a family drama and it plays out the childhood, teenage years, and young adulthood of the children in the family. It explores what our place in the family does to us as part of our development. It probes into our own expectations of our siblings and parents. This book can get a little boring in some places, but I still enjoyed
I struggled w this one. Just couldn't get a groove with it.
You will think this is the story of YOUR family life.
Well written but full of angst.
