Daddy love

Dinah Whitcomb seemingly has everything. A loving and successful husband, and a smart, precocious young son named Robbie. One day, their worlds are shattered when Dinah is attacked and Robbie is taken in a mall parking lot. Dinah, injured, attempts to follow, but is run over by the kidnapper's van, mangling her body nearly beyond repair. The kidnapper, a part-time Preacher named Chester Cash, calls himself Daddy Love, as he has abducted, tortured, and raped several young boys into being his lover and as well as his 'son'. He confines Robbie in a device called an Wooden Maiden, in essence a small coffin, and renamed him 'Gideon'. Daddy Love slowly brainwashes 'Gideon' into believing that he is Daddy Love's real son, and any time the boy resists or rebels it is met with punishment beyond his wildest nightmares. As Dinah recovers from her wounds, her world and her marriage struggle to exist every day. Though it seems hopeless, she keeps a flicker of hope alive that her son is still alive. As Robbie grows older, he becomes more aware of just how monstrous Daddy Love truly is. Though as a small boy he as terrified of what might happen if he disobeyed Daddy Love, Robbie begins to realize that the longer he stays in the home of this demon, the greater chance he'll end up like Daddy Love's other 'sons' who were never heard from again. Somewhere within this tortured young boy lies a spark of rebellion...and soon he sees just what lengths he must go to in order to have any chance at survival.

  • "Szczęśliwe życie Dinah i Whita w ciągu jednego popołudnia legło w gruzach, gdy ich kilkuletni syn Robbie został uprowadzony. Porywacz okaleczył i niemal śmiertelnie poturbował matkę chłopca, po czym rozpłynął się w powietrzu. Zrozpaczeni rodzice przyglądali się bezskutecznym poszukiwaniom i akcjom ratunkowym, próbując nie tracić nadziei. Żadne z nich nie zdawało sobie jednak sprawy, co dla ich dziecka przygotował Tatulo, któremu Bóg wskazał Robbiego jako kolejnego syna. Niewinną istotę, którą należy obdarzyć prawdziwą miłością i poddać boskiej próbie. Joyce Carol Oates szokuje i przeraża - mistrzowsko poprowadzona narracja wiedzie czytelnika w najmroczniejsze zakamarki ludzkiej natury. Powieść dla czytelników o mocnych nerwach."
