Book Reviews of Lobster Boy

Book Review: Three things puzzle me re: the Grady Stiles case
Summary: 3 Stars

(1) Why would the Stiles family continue to bring children that they KNOW are going to be deformed into the world ("If a child was born a freak, it was the child's problem...and God's" ?? How SICK is THAT?) How selfish!

(2) Why would Theresa Stiles leave her third husband, a good, respectful man who never raised a hand to her or her children, divorce him and go back to Grady Stiles for more of what she'd put up with her first time around? Sociopaths do NOT change...and Grady Stiles had already gotten away with the murder of his daughter's boyfriend. He had shown himself capable of murder. WHY would she chuck a quiet, stable life and make a return trip into hell?

(3) Why did Fred Rosen get involved with the case by giving the prosecution a copy of the wrestling videotape with sound? Isn't an author supposed to be unbiased? Rosen had no right to interject himself into this case while it was still being tried.

And why didn't he condemn the so-called "victim" for his treatment of his wives and children over the years? Why did he make Teresa and her son Glenn sound like evil incarnate when Grady, as much as I hate to say it, asked for it?
