Burden e-bog

Frank is a reformed alcoholic. He lives at home with his mother, Elisabeth at least, he did until she went into a nursing home suffering from dementia. He is devoted to her and conversely hates his estranged father, Geoffrey. So when elder sister Pat calls to tell him Dad is dying and wants to meet him, Frank is forced to face up to his demons. But what are they? And how did he acquire them? Every family has its secrets and Franks is no exception. As much as he tries to forget, something happened a long time ago that has coloured his life ever since - and he cant live in peace until he confronts it. Seen from the perspective of four separate family members, The Burden examines an individuals contrasting relationships and the different emotions they inspire.
