"What? Don't talk nonsense, Abigail What are you doing down there?" "It's all my fault." Abigail has just turned 18 when she learns that she may lose her father. From that moment on, this lively, carefree and furious teenager charms us with her childhood memories, rollercoaster emotions, and search for a sense of belonging and understanding in a world that both fascinates and intimidates her, and which she isn't sure how to navigate. Through it all runs her relationship with her father, shaky at times but resting solidly on a foundation of love. A Father's Joy is a gorgeous novel about a daughter's relationship with a parent she doesn't always understand, who often makes her laugh and sometimes, though very rarely, makes her angry. A profound love expressed in the language of a girl for whom growing up is the only option.
