{"product_id":"2940045446303","title":"Behind the 'Masks'","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book tells the story of my family, my life in relationship to them, and later my own life, beginning thirty years before my birth, ending seventy-one years after. But it’s hardly a standard life story; my particular path in life simply doesn’t lend itself to the customary outlay of facts, dates and events.\u003cbr\u003eIt is definitely not a story for the queasy or prudish reader, as it is very graphic, and contains violence, brutality, cruelty, murder, sex and foul language.\u003cbr\u003eCommon - and not so common – details pertinent to my life and to my sense of who I was, were hidden from me, then revealed only eventually, in haphazard and thoughtless ways years after I’d settled into the falsehoods.\u003cbr\u003eNone of the stories I have written in Behind the 'Masks' were obtained from anyone outside of my family; it was a frustrating task getting hold of many of these stories, and more so the details.\u003cbr\u003eMemories age, fade and are sometimes disputed with surprising vigour; however all the events are factual to the best of my knowledge.\u003cbr\u003eThere were numerous times my emotions got the better of me, reliving periods of my past. I spent countless hours researching data as well as trying to express myself clearly enough, enabling my readers to understand my feelings, my thinking, and perhaps even some of my bizarre and strange actions.\u003cbr\u003eHad I been aware of many things during my youth, and perhaps not subjected to so many horrific events and beatings, aspects of my life would certainly have had a far different outcome.\u003cbr\u003eI hope you enjoy reading about the journey of my life as much as I have disliked living most of it, and definitely writing about it.\u003cbr\u003eI further hope my ultimate discovery about myself is as dramatic for you as it was for me.\u003cbr\u003eThe final climax being that I'm now at peace with the past and myself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e: Robbie Daniels\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Robbie Daniels","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47158508323056,"sku":"2940045446303","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940045446303_p0.jpg?v=1763679447","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940045446303","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
