Exploring the complex relationship between fathers and sons, this memoir reflects on the author's journey of understanding his legendary father, Bernard Leser. Initially unable to complete a biography, the author shifts his perspective to see his father as a flawed human rather than a subject to dissect. Through this lens, he uncovers his own identity shaped by both admiration and rebellion. The narrative delves into themes of love, forgiveness, and the universal quest for self-knowledge, ultimately resonating with the shared experiences of all families.
