ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

In A Mother's Reckoning: Living in the Aftermath of Tragedy, Sue Klebold, the mother of Dylan Klebold, one of the Columbine shooters, shares her journey of understanding the events that led to the massacre. The book is a deeply personal account of her struggle to reconcile her love for her son with the horrific acts he committed. It is not just a memoir but a thoughtful exploration of the complexities of brain health, violence, and the challenges of parenthood. The book delves into Dylan's psychological deterioration, his depression and suicidal thoughts, and the impact of his relationship with Eric Harris. Klebold also discusses the broader implications for society and the need for better mental health support and awareness.
