Dad, I Need to Tell You Something

By Karmen-Ita

There are fathers who are physically present and emotionally nowhere. Who sit at the dinner table every evening and remain, somehow, unreachable. Who never learned - or never wanted to learn - how to be there in the way that truly matters.

This book was born from that silence.

Dad, I Need to Tell You Something is a collection of forty letters that were never sent. Letters written across years, through anger and grief and the slow, painful work of understanding. Letters that ask the questions a daughter never dared to ask out loud. Letters that say the things that stayed lodged in the throat for too long.

This is not a story of hatred. It is not a comfortable story of forgiveness either. It is something harder and more honest than both: the account of a woman who chose to look clearly at what her father's absence cost her - in her relationships, in her sense of worth, in the way she learned to love and to expect love in return.

Raw. Unfiltered. Real.

For anyone who grew up waiting for a look that never came. For anyone who loved someone who didn't know how to love back. For anyone who still carries, somewhere inside, the child who needed more than they received.

These letters were never sent to him. But they were written for you.
