BUFFI NEAL

Wonderfully Dysfunctional

The true story of... A gypsy mother who refused to wear a bra and a father who refused to leave his first wife. A brother who slept under the coffee table and a sister who was kidnapped. A cheating minister, a missing uncle and a feisty red-headed grandmother who was longing to leave it all. I always knew my family was unusual, but I was lucky enough to have escaped that gene. Or was I? In a nursing home, seated next to my dying grandmother, I looked around at my family and it occurred to me that I fit right in. No bra, dirty sneakers and two ex husbands. Maybe it really is genetic - maybe I never had a chance. With the help of my siblings, I began a journey of self discovery as we recalled stories of our youth including juicy family secrets, inappropriate practical jokes and betrayal. On a journey to find normal, I found myself instead.

Review

"Buffi is a new and refreshing writer. Her frankness and insight are woven into a sometimes amusing, sometimes sad story that speaks to many of us who carry the 'burden' of the dysfunctional family. She makes dysfunction function..."-Linda Fahy Newman, Ph.D, Educational & Legal Writing Consultant
