Essay / Research Paper Abstract
12 pages in length. If given the choice, Francie Brady would not have chosen the life path upon which he was so violently thrust. In fact, if given the opportunity early in life to develop into a normal, active and loving boy, Francie Brady would have very likely been an outstanding representation of just how wonderful children can be when guided by nurturing, devoted and right-minded parents. However, Francie Brady's life ended up the same way it started out: anything but normal. The equation of a suicidal mother and an alcoholic father set the stage for a boy who occupies equally the role of victim and victimizer as he struggles amidst significant odds to make sense of a life gone terribly wrong.

detached from reality until the time when she ends it; his father, dominated by the influence of alcohol as a means by which to escape the torment of his own
life, cares little about the emotional state of his own son simply because he is wholly incapable of doing so. The combined effect of these two dysfunctional role models
acts in a synergistic fashion to create within Francie a tremor of mental disturbance so volatile that it continues to grow with every passing day until it reaches a point
where the victim and the victimized converge in murder. "I was thinking how right ma was--Mrs Nugent all smiles when she met us and how are you getting on
Mrs and young Francis are you both well? It was hard to believe that all the time what she was really saying was: Ah hello Mrs Pig how are
