Have you ever read a book and hated yourself? Have
you ever read a book and thought to yourself to be wicked? Well, that’s what
happened to me while reading this book.
This biography of Eugene Wallace is worth a read.
Wallace is brought up in an abusive environment, an alcoholic and abusive
father coupled with a mentally challenged mother. This is a disaster waiting to
happen I must say.
Hysterical Memories, the biography of Eugene
Wallace, puts in the open the hardships and discrimination drug addicts face in
their day to day lives. That even when trying to quit the harmful habits, the
addicts face prejudice. It is essential for the society to know that addicts
need love and not prejudice, addicts need to be encouraged when they are in the
process of quitting an addict.
The negative thing I thought about the book was the
length, just 100 pages for a biography? This makes me believe that the
biography is cut short and lacks some details that would make one understand
what Wallace has gone through. Nevertheless, Wallace has made it worth a read
sharing his experiences in places he deemed to have contributed to the person
he is.
The biography is inscribed in simple and easy to
comprehend English, making it enjoyable to read and making the read a speedy
one. The biography opens up your mind to how society works, making one question
themselves.
Another negative in the book is that, it is filled
with some errors that a publisher should be able to correct before the book
goes to print.
