New York celebrity gossip columnist Jeannette Walls is about to marry a businessman. But while her life seems idyllic, her past is gnawing at her. Raised by an artist mother and an offbeat inventor father – who always promised to build his family a glass castle – her childhood is more than complicated. Not sent to school, she lives in admiration of her father even as she is terrified of him and his alcoholism. Jeannette grows up on the road, moving from town to town with no real point of reference. Now an adult, her life is now very far from the ideals of her parents, and she decides to confront her demons.
