Oscar Wilde V1: His Life and Confessions (1916)

Narrated by Susannah, daughter of Hank and Ellie Wendell, we come to know the members of her family. The tortured mother torn by secrets from her past, the emotionally unavailable father who gave more to his flock at the church that his own family, Susannah’s sister, a young music artist, the mother of three who seemed forever unlucky in love and their cross-dressing homosexual brother who finds love with an African American man. While Susannah cares for her own children and husband and gently nurtures her dream of becoming a writer, we grow with her as she takes us through every struggle and challenge, teaching us compassion and tolerance and sharing faith that dreams really can come true and all of us are worthy children of God.
