Review: A Father's Story

It's impossible to review a real-life occurrence. The story of Jeffrey Dahmer will always be one that both haunts and interests me. I read this account of his story, from the perspective of his father, because I will be writing a research paper about Jeffrey Dahmer this semester in my English course. I most likely would not have read this if it weren't for the research I require for this paper, but I am honestly glad that I did. While Lionel seemed slightly untrustworthy or hypocritical at times, he provided a perspective on Jeffrey that I had never really heard before. Overall, this book was surprisingly well written and brutally honest in the places where it had to be.
