Living in a Dark House (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798218385941)

Although distinctly grounded in gritty Akron, Ohio, during the height and then the fall of the rubber industry, there is a mystical element in this novel that was written memoir style. Delanie Daye, with feet firmly planted on the earth, is a smart, hardworking girl who harbors a dark secret. She appears happy, funny, and carefree, but close friends catch glimpses into the "dark house" of life with Jim Dandy, her abusive and deranged father. On a quest for self-actualization, freedom, fulfillment, spirituality, and education, Delanie is transformed by the many unsuspecting, uncanny, and magical relationships that shape and carry her. With allusions to pop culture, music, literature, and the recent history of the 1980s, Delanie tells her story with heart, humor, and guts. Come along for the ride!
