Het zorgt ervoor dat hij besluit om zijn vader eindelijk los te laten en verder te gaan met zijn leven. Mark Matthews is a graduate of the University of Michigan and a licensed professional counselor who has worked in behavioral health for over 20 years. Adrian Simon skilfully takes us through his life, from adored child with every material wish taken care of, to the strong, driven person he is today.Whilst reading this book I felt the lostness of the young Adrian and his ongoing desire to separate from his father's past, whilst also not being able to move on from it.

Ava and Kiera string the Barbies up with rough twine by the neck, dangle them from the Dream House roof; they watch the pointed toes twirl. If the blood clearly results from common concerns such as engorgement or rusty pipe syndrome, there’s no need to seek help yet. Even now, she marvels about dualities as two contrary wants rise up inside her, formulating something that feels like cold fire burning inside her chest: the want to run, and also to see everything. Neither of the girls want to be here—at Chelsea Zucker’s thirteenth birthday party, near the end of the school year—but Ava’s mother got the invitation from Chelsea’s mother and told her she was going. Moniz plunges readers head first into the lives of oft misunderstood Floridians and their personal crises, stitching together a portrait that feels both original and startlingly familiar.

A fresh feel for the intensity and contradictions of girlhood sings across tough stories… The prose is pretty, but it punishes.

An uncompromising glimpse into a world that most would prefer not to think about but which is sadly all too common in this day and age, Mark Matthew's Milk-Blood is both bleak and brutal. He also puts words from himself in the beginning of some of the chapters, where he is explaining his thoughts and things about the story to us. In 1667, Jean-Baptiste Denys transfused the blood of a sheep into a 15-year-old boy and a laborer, both of which survived. Daar is niets mis mee, maar er lijkt vaak een grote discrepantie tussen zijn realiteit en die daarbuiten te zijn.Kiera’s mother is a fluttering, airy sensation at the doorway, something fleeting and cool against Ava’s cheek. Hier wird die Geschichte Lillys berichtet, die mit einem Herzfehler und an einer ausgesprägten Cyanose leidend in die Unterschicht hineingeboren wird; kurz nach der Geburt verschwindet ihre Mutter (dem Leser wird frühzeitig von ihrem Tod berichtet) und Lilly wird von ihrem Vater großgezogen, von dem auch sie weiß, dass er bereit zu töten ist. In this dog-eat-dog world, Adrian’s trump card is his mother’s love, cradling him from the overwhelming, chaotic truth of who-and-what his father was … and is. Moniz has crafted a stunning debut collection of stories with living, pinprickly prose, like a hot Florida day or a finger traced up the back… at once otherworldly and completely real. Ultimately Adrian realises it’s ok to be different, and the struggles don't stop, you just get better at dealing with them.

The party is at the nicest hotel their city has to offer, though the girls are old enough to know that’s not saying much.Kiera lies down too, and they stay like that until the sun sinks behind the pines, casting the world in cool gold and nightshade green.

I could feel the tension in my body whilst reading this book, the range of emotions stirred up from hope to disgust and shock. Their stories weren't splashed across women's magazines or made into TV series, they were the real, painful, lived experiences of two people damaged almost permanently by another's greed, stupidity and narcissism.
