Under the Influence
Under the Influence was a good essay to read. It showed what alcohol can do to a person when they take it. It talked about how his father drinking affected him and his family. When reading this essay you get to learn when he was ten years old that he failed his father and blamed himself when his dad drank. His father was an alcoholic, for as long as he could remember. He talks about the way his father alcoholism affected him and his family. It had a very strong impact on the author; he himself never drank, and tries to convince other people not to do so, by writing this essay. In the end of the essay the author talks about how he tries stays away from all alcohol, but that he rarely has few drinks and when he does he listens for a turning of a key.
