Don't tell Mama

In the novel "Don't Tell Mama", author Tony Maguire presents painful true events about a young girl who is exposed to one of the most terrifying aspects of primitive and contemporary life, namely the physical abuse inflicted on her by her father, who is supposed to be the bright core of her childhood. Her mother, and her silence about it, stripped the writer of her most precious weapons and left her more painful. Rather, it appeared in the folds of the narration and in its texts, the writer’s clear accusation of the spirit of motherhood itself, and dictated to her the question that kept recurring in this and that incident, about the feasibility of venerating and sanctifying motherhood. "I trusted my mother's love for me. She would ask him to stop, but she did not." The value of this biography does not lie in the literature it contains, but rather in the moral and human tragedy it contains.
