£3.00 / Sold Out
Good Dad Bad Dad is a series of unsent letters written to an abusive father. It explores a private, raw, one-way exchange between father and child. These letters were written over the years and collected here for the first time.
Sometimes just a sentence, other times paragraphs; the tone fluctuating between anger, remorse, vengeance and indifference.This is a series of unfiltered writings which are a furious commentary on trauma, parental relationships, childhood and growth.
This book questions the dichotomy of good and bad and the voyeuristic role the reader plays in witnessing this dialogue. It is a reflection on the reader just as much as it is on the author, patriarch and what is left unsaid.
