CRISIS, PURSUED BY DISASTER, FOLLOWED CLOSELY BY CATASTROPHE: A MEMOIR OF LIFE ON THE RUN: Mike O'Connor: Random House: Biography: 304 pgs.The author grew up in the 50's in a seemingly normal family. His parents met in Europe during World War II, and his father brought his mother back to America and started a family. You soon realize that they are anything but normal, and that there is a huge black cloud hanging over their lives. Just as the family would get settled in one place and begin to live comfortably, their father would force them to flee. These late night escapes over the border to Mexico forced the children to leave behind friends, pets, possessions and any stability they may have felt. This is a fascinating story of the author's quest to uncover his parents secrets and piece together their story long after they had both passed away.
