### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Bandit is the perfect title for this book
  

*by P***C on Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2020*

Bandit, of course, is appropriate because the father in this book is a bank robber. But he also robs his family of so much more. In the kindest terms he was a charming scoundrel with a gambling and lying problem. As you read about the damage he did to his wife, to his daughters by playing them off against each other, to Molly's sister who was his "favorite" and seems more scarred by both his favors and betrayals (although obviously this memoir is from Molly's POV) he seems to be more of a sociopath. Writing a memoir can be a form of therapy, often an effort to try to understand a parent whose actions are incomprehensible to the author and/or to work through anger. I hope the writing of this finely crafted book brought Molly to a place of greater equanimity.

    Read it in one day. Want to read it again.
  

*by L***A on Reviewed in the United States on November 3, 2016*

I read this book in one day. Not because it was an “easy” read (it isn’t) or because I had the time (I didn’t). I probably shouldn’t have read it so quickly because there is so much to think about in these pages, so much to digest. But, it was just so good that I couldn’t put it down.When I picked up this book, I didn’t know that it takes place where I live or that the events recorded took place in my lifetime. As I read this memoir though, it wasn’t its location or time frame of reference that I connected with most. It was the author’s voice I found the most familiar, the poetic precision with which she describes her childhood experiences. The events and details of her story are unique to her, but she’s done something here with words that are therapeutic for anyone who suffered neglect (anywhere on its spectrum) or who perhaps felt like a stranger both to and in their own family unit growing up. I underlined so many passages, so many truths as I read—something I haven’t done in a novel since college.In her memoir, Brodak talks about whether a story, any story, is worth telling. She weighs truth verses perspective, the narcissism of the memoir verses its potential benefits to readers. As someone who also enjoys writing, I relate to this burden. So, with whatever authority I have a reader/reviewer of Bandit, I will say that this story wasn’t just good and enjoyable to read—it mattered. It’s important. It’s helpful. And I’m so grateful the author had the courage to write it.  I will be recommending it to many friends.

    Molly Brodak has written something incredibly smart and difficult about understanding who we are
  

*by M***. on Reviewed in the United States on April 8, 2018*

A stellar memoir about a gambling addict and bank robbing father and the family he betrayed with his crimes. At once, Molly Brodak has written something incredibly smart and difficult about understanding who we are, who our parents are/were, and what about us is a direct correlation of our parents; additionally, embedded within this heartbreaking collapse of a family is a profound indictment of stories and storytelling and the myth of the outlaw. A hundred years of glorification of the outlaw and it comes down to this: everything they touch turns to shit, and the stories of those left behind are just as important as the perpetuation of the mythological outlaw. With this book, Brodak has ensured that the story is told this time. The criminal is demystified. Nobody is innocent, nobody is the same, in the shadow of bad men. There are also some interesting observations about Detroit.
