I Know This Much is True Chapter 11 Summary

How It All Goes Down

  • Back to the future (well, the 90s) Dominick gets his busted balls checked out by a doctor, then heads over to the Roods' house to explain why he hasn't been there painting.
  • He talks to Ruth, who says Henry doesn't want to be disturbed.
  • She's drinking, and offers Dominick a beer, but he refuses, and promises to return in a couple days.
  • Next, he visits Ray, who is asleep. Dominick assumes Ray is sleeping during the day because he's working nights.
  • He takes the trash out for his old step-man and, again, wonders who his real father is.
