I read this book around 20 years ago - definitely worth a read. He documents the 'evil' parents, invariably unseen, behind disfunctional kids. He exposes them as often being cloaked as well respected citizens but in truth they are the 'people of the lie'. I was recommended this book by a friend whilst dealing with a very strange situation and I have to say it really shone a light on what was happening.
Haven’t read peck in decades. need to reread as I remember these books being very enlightening to me at the time. Sad I can’t remember anything about them.
Great book. The Road Less Traveled was a huge best seller. This was the follow up and it dealt with a very difficult subject: evil. Next came The Different Drum, another best seller.
You know I love these book recommendations and the compilation of interesting stories and topics from around the world you provide every day. However, I miss your personal and profound pieces and writing. You write profound things. Please consider posting one of your profound writings again as I clearly do miss. Don’t be afraid. Love, Across the Pond

I still have this book in storage. My dad gave me this…”The Road Less Traveled”.
I will definitely purchase this book!

Thanks! Don't worry things are bubbling up!
Published in 1983
People actually could 'think' then. Now, it's too hard for most. We're plummeting as a cvilization--sadly.
People would actually read books then also. Books we would choose to read, going to a book store was one of my favorite guilty pleasures.
I have a sister who perfectly fills the bill. UNBEARABLE!!!!
I read this book and it really wakes you up to how evil a lot of people really are.
A “crazy maker”!!
