Wreckage: My Father’s Legacy of Art & Junk BUCKNELL UNIVERSITY PRESS
“Taking on the wreckage,” Sascha Feinstein writes of the
overwhelming, impossible legacy of junk the artist and
hoarder who raised him left behind, “meant taking on my
father.” This book is his accounting: desperate and funny,
horrifying and artful, and much less bitter than it had every
right to be. If the father’s legacy suffocates, his son’s
accomplishment is to find not only room to breathe, but the
gifts and challenges that launch a young writer on his way. The
buoyancy required to survive a father’s excess becomes a son’s
source of strength, enabling him to build—with the good help
of poetry, jazz, and the movies—a self and a family, and even to
restore a nearly ruined house to radiant life.To order visit http://www.rowman.com
