To those on the outside, it seemed like the troubles of this family were those of a typical family split. Those common issues that result from a long and confusing divorce. In reality, the trauma unfolding and pain traveling throughout this entire family goes much, much deeper. It's the aftermath of a family trapped in a constant, never-ending trail of secrets, abuse, and broken promises. An entire family of people who are lost in their own mind, creating catastrophic situations for themselves and others. A group of people wounded so deeply, that they are now stuck in a torturous loop of causing undeniable pain to others in an attempt to heal what is broken - and they don't even realize the severity of the long-term suffering surrounding them. A broken home that erupted from the cycle of the many generations who came before. An evil gene planted deep into the families bloodstream and hidden without understanding, and without base knowledge of a solution. A story told through the eldest child's empathetic eyes - a set of eyes that also looks into those of each individual trapped in the psychological prison. Digging deep in an attempt to see all perspectives of the pain.
The story of a family tragedy - told through journal entries, conversations, brief writings, quotes, short poems, meaningful metaphors, real time realizations, consistent timeline jumps, and an attempt at empathetic and deep psychological understandings.
