What people are saying about FUNCTIONAL FAMILIES .... "Taylor Garcia's stories are tough and tender-hearted, brief and astonishing dramas that show us what we know to be true: that our families are designed to drive us crazy, but also to bring us deeper into ourselves. I loved these stories." Steve Almond, author of All the Secrets of the World, the national best seller Candyfreak, and Bad Stories "The stories in Functional Families are sharp, surprising glimpses of those moments of life when the cracks start to show, when a border is crossed, when it’s clear things will never be the same. Taylor Garcia writes with great heart and humor and I gobbled up his wonderful collection." Jess Walter, author of the national best seller The Cold Millions, and the #1 New York Times Bestseller Beautiful Ruins Please share with friends and family!
