Book excerpt: A modern day version of Grapes of Wrath, Cry into the Wind offers a revealing glimpse into the dysfunctional existence of an American family and the healing power of duty, love and reconciliation. Othello's recount of her childhood-the truck that was the only home she knew during the first six years of her life, the two-room shack that claimed her mother's life in a tragic fire, the abusive behavior of an alcoholic father, and the eleven long years she spent with her siblings at an Oklahoma orphanage-is captivating. Recording her memories in a simple yet touching style, Othello conveys strength of emotions that have been distilled and clarified over time. Cry into the Wind is a testimony to the strength of the American spirit, and a valuable source of inspiration for those struggling to overcome the effects of a difficult childhood.
