(Credit: Jake Giles Netter) “You know, I thought I could be a normal woman, or a woman without a past,” said Jeannette Walls in a recent interview for “The Inflection Point. “I just wanted for once in my life to be defined by what I did instead of who my parents were — the crazy alcoholic dad and the loopy artistic mom who were always creating a scene and creating chaos.” Walls’ memoir “The Glass Castle” came out about a decade ago, and if you haven’t picked it up yet, it’s truly a must read.
