My Father And Other Disasters

Theresa Ann Dunbar (Munchie) is four years old when she becomes aware that there is something missing from her young existence. While she romps with the other children in the yard of the tenement where she lives with her father and a series of women he brings home, she realizes that her own mother is missing. She struggles to understand the meaning of her existence as she encounters disaster after disaster on her journey to adulthood, all the while hoping that somehow she will find the woman who abandoned her in that filthy yard to fend for herself. And then she meets Romie, the son of one of the women her father Frederick brings into her life. Their youthful passion is denied, however, when Romie also disappears from her life and Munchie must learn to survive on her own. Her naivet? is shattered as she enters adulthood and she grasps for anchors as her world turns upside-down and back again.The story of My Father and Other Disasters is a painful one for thousands who go on a quest to find their parents. Some, in their search, will encounter that parent. Others will, for one reason or another, never experience this closure. Their journey is eternal.
