It seemed to me then, hearing his words, that a father's life is a boy's first story." -from Cures for Hunger At once an extraordinary family story and a highly unconventional portrait of the artist as a young man, Cures for Hunger is a singular, deeply affecting memoir, by one of the most acclaimed young writers in the world today."In Cures for Hunger , Deni Y.
