Though generally lacking the privilege of the institutions' wealthy students, the faculty brats who live in campus housing have access to the schools' extensive grounds and facilities. With few exceptions, though these children are frequently despised, they must be tolerated. Dominic Bucca's art teacher mother married his music teacher stepfather twice, and the young boy wondered if the union might be twice as strong as a result. Instead, he quickly discovered that the marriage was twice as flawed and growing worse with each passing year. When Dominic was nine years old, his stepfather began sexually abusing him in the faculty housing attached to the boys' dorm his parents oversaw. Years later, he found escape by reaching out to his real dad, and learned to split his life between two realities. For nearly twenty-five years, Dominic hid the secret of his stepfather's abuse from his mother and sisters. When he decided to tell, hoping to prevent his stepfather from continuing to teach young boys, Dominic discovered the limits of both his family and the legal system. Faculty Brat explores the foundations of an abusive home, the effects of childhood abuse on burgeoning sexuality, the ways in which class and privilege affect legal outcomes for victims, and how far the limits of family can be tested"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Bucca, Dominic, $d 1978- 650 0 $a Sexually abused children $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Children of teachers $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Child sexual abuse $z United States $v Case studies. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Bucca, Dominic, 1978- $t Faculty brat $d Iowa City : University of Iowa Press, 2020. $z 9781609386863 $w (DLC) 2019026583 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20230302020212.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317015901.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=AD5C25D0A55F11EAA027EF1497128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
