Resumen:
The Invisible Girl. Peter Barham left home when his daughter Debbie was nine months old. An absentee father, he hardly knew Debbie until she turned up on his doorstep 22 years later. Suffering from anorexia, Debbie said, "My life's a mess, all of it . . . Please sort me out." The Invisible Girl is a father's heartrending journey to understand the gifted but troubled daughter he abandoned. Weaving together the strands of Debbie's phenomenal success as a BBC comedy writer with her obsessive need for privacy and ritual, Peter tries to understand why, ultimately, he couldn't save his daughter from the terrifying grip of anorexia. A powerful and moving memoir that will make you laugh and cry in equal measure. |
