Duration: 90 min | Original title: Our Fathers |
by #rebeccawait When Tom was eight years old he survived a tragedy. His father took a shotgun killed his mother, brother, sister and finally himself. Tom lived, physically unharmed. 20 years later with his life out of kilter he has returned to the remote Scottish island where the tragedy took place. Thus begins the fabulous Our Fathers. When Tom returns he asks his uncle, his fathers brother, if he might stay with him. Both men are taciturn not revealing themselves to the other, his uncle while willing, is unsure how to help his nephew with the suppressed guilt at surviving those terrible events. Over long walks across the Hebridean landscape they finally start to communicate. Some of the islanders too are less than happy to see Tom back, as they too are reminded of those terrible events and they role they too played in them. Had they missed the signs of abuse, the father had seemed such a nice man? Whose fault was it? This book is a riveting account of a community finally coming to terms, after many years, with an event that rocked their community and finally facing up to the true. I can’t recommend Our Father enough. Please read it. It’s great.

Thank you to all who are currently serving our country, and those who came before you. We so appreciate you for your service to our country. And enjoy the flags in Paradise on a beautiful Fall day a few years ago. Special thanks to our fathers, Edward Conry, US Army WWII, and A.

#TBT Who is Clyde? Clyde is my father's name. When Obasi and I were trying to brainstorm about a name for the catering business, we decided to honor our fathers. Two men from different backgrounds...that we are learning more about each day...on this journey together. Both of our fathers died unexpectedly. Both of our fathers loved deeply. Both of our fathers loved different foods. Both of our fathers worked tirelessly to provide for their family. Both of our fathers gave us life...and Obasi and I are born on the same day...March 10. The name became more apparent...that we had to honor them in our lives, telling their stories, learning their stories, and laying groundwork for our legacies. Now, Every meal and painting we make and create will honor THEM in our US. 🙏🏾 We can only hope we make them proud. We pray they are singing and dancing in heaven watching us build our love while we make delicious foods that celebrate different cultures while learning more about them both. #Ubuntu #IamBecauseYouAre #OurVows #OurBond #OurLove #OurFathers #JohnnieAndClyde #RestInPower #TheStoryOfUs #Art #Family #Love
#Sexuality or #Perversion? It is not the action of open affection between one person & another, it is not #hate, #intolerance or #phobia but the fact that #gay, #bi, #lesbian, #trans whichever label by those who practice any such #deviation is something normal & acceptable. It is not, it flies in the face of GOD. In these #evil #endtimes it is the corruption that started with #Satan in the #GardenOfEden which continues by #demonic influence by the #devil’s design to where we are now. The devil seeks his foot #soldiers and creates his own for the coming battle which is waged in open revolt to the #Almighty. When Adam was lonely he asked God for a companion, #GOD knew what Adam needed, He created Eve not Steve nor a Tom, Dick or Harry. Likewise, Eve the given companion didn’t hook-up with Mary Jane. If you want to be gay etcetera you have your #freewill to be so but know you stand contrary to #Yahweh‘s intention and will. Whatever evil perversion is aired as normal or forced into popular compliance means nothing to GOD. Standing as a corruption of Satan you will neither enter #OurFathers #Heavenly #Kingdom or remain in the coming #NewJerusalem nor should you expect to while practicing unnatural flesh; there is already a place set aside for you. I express my personal brotherly #love for each of you, it is not out of hate, fear or ignorance but with the understanding Yahweh has given me and His message I share in obedience to the #Lord. Turn from your #sin, be clean and sin no more. Glory to God the Almighty.

Thank you @riverrun_books for sending me this proof of "Our Fathers" by Rebecca Wait. Bracing myself for an emotional read - this is a story discussing violence and relationships between fathers and sons. Fortifying myself with a cup of coffee. It's a cold day today, perfect for burying yourself under blankets and reading. So, that's the plan. And what are you reading today? #rebeccawait #riverrun #readingnow #czytamteraz #bookstagram #igbooks #instabooks #instaksiazki #bookworm #bookaddict
January wrap up. . I had a great reading month; a lot of 5⭐️ reads, and many that really affected me and will stay with me. . Not included in this pile is the wonderful The Cut Out Girl by Bart Van Es because a friend has borrowed it. My Dark Vanessa is in the post on its way to @booksinscotland (and now another friend has borrowed The Choke!). . I’ve reviewed all of these except two: The Patron Saint of Lost Souls which I won in a giveaway from the lovely @menna.vanpraag and read whilst hosting parties between Christmas and Hogmanay. It’s set in Cambridge (my beautiful home town 💕) so I was in my element and really enjoyed an uplifting story amidst my darker reads. . The Language Of Birds is the other one I haven’t reviewed. It’s about the Lord Lucan affair, told from the POV of the nanny (who was murdered in a probable case of mistaken identity; his wife being the likely target) and her best friend. I enjoyed reading more about the case as I remember my parents discussing it as Lord Lucan would allegedly be spotted at various places in the 1980’s. But it wasn’t a stand out book for me. . I reckon I had an amazing start to the year. Here’s hoping February gives me so many outstanding reads. What are you looking forward to reading in February? . #mydarkvanessa #thechoke #sofielaguna #rebeccawait #thelanguageofbirds #jilldawson #thepatronsaintsoflostsouls #mennavanpraag #thingsinjars #jesskidd #snowcountry #yasunarikawabata #bodiesoflight #sarahmossauthor #awomaninthepolarnight #christianeritter #januaryreads #januarywrapup #bookstagrammer #readersofinsta #bookstack

This compelling tale of a man facing his demons by returning to his childhood home is as bleak as the island he grew up on. Incredibly well written and worth checking out #currentlyreading #bookworm #booksarelife #bookstagram #rebeccawait #literarycrimefiction #scotland #dysfunctionalfamily
It's a happy publication day mini review, today's being that of Rebecca Wait'"s extraordinary novel 'Our Fathers' published in hardback by @riverrun_books who very kindly provided me with a copy. - ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Through the altering narrations found throughout the novel, you can begin to piece together what contributed and ultimately lead a man to killing his family. The reader is spiralled down a rabbit hole of events from both Tom and Malcolm's points of view. Different stories that share similar sadness. Rebecca has used many aspects of real life to create a movingly poignant novel that is filled with tenderness and compassion, with heartbreak speckled throughout. Our Fathers revolves around family violence that show how it affects the survivors, and especially Tom is trying to avoid becoming that monster he fears. I immediately became intoxicated by the writing, captivated by the characterisation and plotline, I never wanted to surface from the waves of Tom's sadly chaotic life. I absolutely adored every single page! . . . . . . #MiniReview #OurFathers #RebeccaWait #Riverrun #PublicationDay #HappyPublicationDay #hardback #ReadingClosetReviews #BookReview #Review #bloggeruk #BookBlogger #Bookstagram #booksofinstagram #BooksAndCoffee
#Februarywrapup 🌿 February was an excellent reading month with lots of really strong fiction. 🌿 #thefamiliars and (which my mum has now got) were read in a couple of sittings. #awomaninthepolarnight and #wilddogs were books to savour and lose yourself in. 🌿 #unsheltered and #Washingtonblack were, very different, but interesting stories with strong leads. 🌿 I am not sure I could choose a favourite. I must thank @pushkin_press @gallicbooks and @riverrun_books for sending me three of these excellent books. 🌿 March has a lot of follow but will will feature a buddy read of the new Hilary Mantel with @puellalegit 🌿 Happy Saturday everyone. It’s raining again here - what a surprise! So essay writing, I wading and the cinema (Dark Waters) is on the agenda for me. How about you? . . . . #toomanybookstoolittletime #prettybooks #bookworm #reader #reading #books #booklover #booksofinstagram #igbooks #igreads #bookstagram #bookstoread #bookworm #lovebooks #alwaysreading #bookloversofinstagram #bookstack

It’s March 1st! I have a book coming out on March 10th. It’s been a brilliant journey. There is a deep cast of characters, one of whom is my sweet papa. Blessed be those souls who inform our lives. I am forever grateful #fatasyauthor
Our Fathers by Rebecca Wait has just been published by @riverrun_books. It’s fantastically well written and feels important. I finished this book weeping. Lucid and terrible, this beautifully written novel examines not the story of a murderer’s act, but the story of all his victims. The pernicious myth of the ‘good man who snapped’ needs burying forever. Good men do not control or hurt their families. I was utterly absorbed by Tommy and Malcolm, attempting over umpteen cups of tea to help each other, speaking haltingly in an unfamiliar language of guilt, fear, grief and love. The landscape of the Hebridean island of Litta - weather-buffeted, hostile, remote yet claustrophobic - is brilliantly evoked. This is a book that will stay with me. It’s skilfully rendered fiction, but with so much to say about emotional abuse, cruelty, inadequate men turning to violence and the tragedy of each of their victims - all horrors that are heartbreakingly far from fictional. #rebeccawait #bookstagramuk #bookworm #bookish #riverrunbooks
