Joel el Bobo

Joel (33) walks through life as a loser, receiving ridicule from his coworkers and contempt from the world in general, which makes him feel frustrated and full of anger, which he takes out by hitting and mistreating his young daughter (10). Through the voice of the narrator (who is also a girl), we learn about daily life in Joel's home and how his daughter is in turn becoming a cruel person who harbors desires for destruction against her own family and the world. The narrative also explores Joel's past, showing how the bullying he suffered as a child has marked him for life, turning him into the violent person he is today.
