Synopsis

HOPES AND DREAMS spring to life with booming tract housing and shiny new refrigerators in post-WWII America. However, many service members' families continued to suffer in a never- ending, unacknowledged war. Patricia Wynn Brown, "the Mouthy One" in her middle American family, is hell-bent on overcoming the hardships of her chaotic family life. She battles family shame brought on by her veteran Dad's bizarre behaviors and unexpected absences for hospitalizations while also figuring out how to mail a letter to her favorite Beatle (Paul). When her father's headline-grabbing death in 1980 eventually hits her, she is forced to reassess her life. A visit to a Welsh castle bolsters her courage to search for the truth behind her father's actions, which leads to stunning disclosures. The US Navy helps transform shame into understanding and love. This uplifting journey's revelatory lessons apply to anyone who is reassembling the fragments of a shattered life. Brown tells her story with wit, faith, and an unflinching gaze. It is a humorous yet poignant exploration of how PTSD can impact a family, inter woven with a vivid portrayal of the popular culture and watershed events of the 1950s to 1970s.
