"all of Dad's egineering skills andmathematical genius were coming together in one special project: a great big house he was going to build for us in the desert. The Glass Castle...."(25) This is a significant line because the title of my book is The Glass Castle. Jeanette talks about how she loved living out in the desert. I think that the dream of being able to live ut in the desert but also have a luxurious lifestyle appealed to her greatly. She also talked about how she thought her dad was perfect. It seems to me that she has a stronger bond with her father than she does with her mother. I think that she viewed her dad as a role model and he talked about building this house for his family to live in. I think that this dream of his only made Jeanette admire him even more because in a way he liked living in the desert and he too wanted to live a comfortable lifestyle. He and Jeanette had many similarities and the dream of a glass castle only drew them closer together. I think Jeanette Walls titled her book the Glass Castle because she loves her father very much and shared a very strong bond with him. So she titled her book after her greatest dream during her childhood. Which is to see her father succeed and thier family be able to live comfortably in the desert.
