Very moving insight of a father

Rezension aus Deutschland vom 23. Juli 2023

Verifizierter Kauf

I did not/do not know much about Jeffrey Dahmer except the name - I was all the more interested in the story. An interesting, moving insight of a father - starting with Jeffreys' childhood, etc. How can you deal with such a situation? Strong recommendation!

Spannender Einblick aus einer anderen Perspektive

Rezension aus Deutschland vom 11. Januar 2023

Verifizierter Kauf

Habe mir dieses Buch als E-Book auf Englisch bestellt, da die deutschen Versionen durch die mediale Präsenz der Story bis ins Unverschämte gehandelt werden.

Wer interessiert an der Story ist und sich die englische Version zutraut, sollte sich dieses Buch auf jeden Fall zulegen.

L. Dahmer schildert hier ausführlich die Biografie und den Werdegang seines Sohnes. Er ermöglicht damit eine andere Perspektive auf J. Dahmer. Habe die Serie auf Netflix geschaut und trotzdem rentiert es sich, dass Buch zu lesen, da hier Viele Dinge thematisiert werden, die in der Serie zu kurz kommen.

very haunting

Rezension aus Deutschland vom 1. September 2018

and very sad. I believe that Jeff was utterly failed by his parents, both completely emotionally absent. I was struck by one incident his father recalls, about him coming home for lunch, and seeing Jeff just sitting there in the yard, staring into space, and his father not making contact, just getting lunch and getting back to the office.
It is a picture of total isolation. The living situation did not help, the house was very isolated with not even sidewalks in the area. Also the mother only got her driver*s license later in life, to her isolation was complete, too.
I believe the operation at his young age traumatized him forever, and he withdrew completely from there on. He had no friends, no relationships, he never knew or was interested in connecting with others.
Jeff turned out to be completely without ambition or interests in life. That was puzzling to his father, and rightly so, because both parents evidently are intelligent, articulate persons. I believe that his obsession completely filled 95% of his brain, there was just no room for anything else. Contrary to other serial killers, that were able to function much better in life, his was a singularly pursuit with no room for education, a good job, friends, or hobbies. Which is what makes his case so compelling. He never had any interest in anything else.
Of course, that would have been the thing to talk to him about, not his father sitting him down again and again, trying to get him interested in anything. What is really going on with you? Would have been a good question.
Most likely he would not have opened up about his dark fantasies, and after the first murder at 18, it was too late. His was doomed from that point on, as well as his numerous victims.
After he was caught, he was an empty shell of a man, his only interest in life being taken away from him. Without empathy, real regret, and no purpose in life, he just wanted to die.
Of the red flags his father seems to have missed? A lot. One incident comes to mind, where his grandmother complained about the foul smells and strange goings on in her house. The father, her son, comes to investigate, and finds a stinking barrel with slush and bones. "We did not know those were human bones" is what you find in the earlier newspaper articles. "Jeff said he was dissecting animals just as he did when he was younger."
Claiming that he never knew about those things is just one thing that does not ring true to me.
Apart from the pure horror of finding out what your offspring did, his father was also faced with a number of lawsuits. He also paid large sums for psychiatrists in the trial, so it was a financial burden too. He claimed to plan to give parts of the proceeds to the victim families, which it seems, he never did.
He then promoted his book in the cringe-worthy interview with Stone Philipps which shows the interaction between father and son in alarming detail. I think Jeff agreed to it because he understood his father wanted to recoup some of his financial losses, and make up for that, and because his father stood by him and continued to visit him in prison.
But in the end, both father and son come across as sadly deficient human beings, without empathy and feeling.

Habe mir dieses Buch zugelegt und wurde nicht enttäuscht. Es ist sehr interessant wie der Vater alles miterlebte, oder halt auch nicht erlebte, denn bisher kennt man ja nur durch Aufzeichnungen die Sicht von JD.

A Father’s Story - ein Buch, das einen wirklich fesselt

Rezension aus Deutschland vom 8. November 2022

Verifizierter Kauf

Ich habe dieses Buch bestellt, nachdem ich mir die Netflix-Serie und die Dokumentation angesehen hatte.
Die Qualität des Buches ist wunderbar, es ist ohne Schäden bei mir angekommen. Ich habe mich für die Hardcover Edition entschieden.
Wenn man gern True Crime Bücher oder Biografien liest, gut englisch versteht, dann empfehle ich dieses Buch auf alle Fälle. Es ist wirklich ziemlich gut geschrieben und es lässt einen nicht mehr los.. man denkt so viel darüber nach und es ist enorm interessant, das alles aus der Sicht des Vaters zu lesen.
Klare Kaufempfehlung meinerseits.

Well written and deeply reflective

Rezension aus den Vereinigten Staaten vom 27. Dezember 2023

Verifizierter Kauf

For me, reading this book gave me a different perspective into Jeff's background but it is also about seeing experiences through his father's eyes and understanding the memories, questions and feelings he was processing in relation to Jeff's upbringing and everything that led up to the crimes. It seems there was also a part of him that felt like he had lost his son long before Jeff's death, and it sounds like the connection was strongest toward the end. If he felt that he couldn't get close to Jeff before or that Jeff was closed off for most of his life, this might explain why Lionel could only offer information about what he saw in his son and how he responded to it. I do think it would have been interesting to hear more about their positive experiences together during Jeff's childhood, because that is equally important for seeing the whole picture, but I still got a lot from the book regardless. I also found the writing kept me engaged and wanting to know more, he has a way of putting things simply yet conveying it with depth and meaning. The book overall is worth the read, in my opinion.

Incredible to read Jeff Dahmer’s story from his father’s POV! I bought it as a gift to someone and just had to read it myself first. If you’re a fan of true crime, this is an interesting read!

Um ótimo livro

Rezension aus Brasilien vom 29. Dezember 2022

Verifizierter Kauf

Inicialmente, comprei a versão kindle, pois o preço estava muito acessível e também nessa versão tem a opção de tradução. Agora farei a aquisição do livro físico, porque dos livros que li sobre o Dahmer, eu achei esse o melhor. No livro, o pai relata memórias desde a infância até o final da vida de Dahmer e inclui fotos de família. Ele pontua algumas mudanças de comportamento que o filho apresentou e também faz algumas relações com a sua própria vida. Acho que esse livro deveria ser lido por qualquer pai e mãe, bem como por quem gosta de true crime. Vale frisar que no livro o pai não aborda muito sobre os crimes do Dahmer, ele relata mais sobre a relação familiar e as consequências das ações do filho.

A very compelling story!

Rezension aus Indien vom 30. Juni 2023

Verifizierter Kauf

I found this book a very heart-wrenching and a compelling story of a helpless father who tried every bit to alter his son's fate, but destiny had something completely different and dark in store. His observations of his own son, his nuances, the circumstances, etc., are in complete raw and true form. I can only sympathize with Lionel. This book is highly recommended.
