Reviews Elsewhere – “A Brother’s Journey” by Richard B. Pelzer
Well, in truth it’s not so much a review, but some thoughts about reading the book from Nathan Box
Richard B. Pelzer is the brother of Dave Pelzer. Dave is the author of three books, “A Child Called It,” “The Lost Boy,” and “A Man Named Dave.” The three books document one of the most horrific child abuse cases I have ever encountered. Richard’s book focuses on life after David was rescued from the home and placed in the foster care system. After David left, Richard became the source of his mother’s rage. This book documents his heartbreaking and gut-wrenching struggle.
From Nathan’s description if you are like him, and have read David’s books and always wondered what happened to his brother, well there you go. And yes, it is horrifying to think that after David was removed from the home, the other children were left there. It boggles the mind.
