Albany, NY – In 2005, The Glass Castle was released, Jeannette Walls' heart-wrenching memoir that stunned readers and critics and went on to sell over 2 and a half million copies.

Walls has now written a prequel to The Glass Castle. Half Broke Horses: A True Life Novel. It came out of wanting to tell a story about her mother and ended up being a story about her Grandmother Lily.
