This is the world of 'The Glass Castle', a memoir by Jeannette Walls. The Walls family, constantly on the move, faced poverty, neglect, and hardships that seemed insurmountable, but always dreamed of building a glass castle - a symbol of prosperity and stability. As they grow, so does their determination to escape their circumstances and build a better life.

This journey from poverty to prosperity proves the indomitable human spirit. She teaches us the power of unconditional love, the importance of self-reliance, and that no matter our upbringing, we can shape our destiny and control our life. Now, who says a home is just a physical place?
