This debut work weaves personal essays and short stories into a tapestry of raw emotion, tinged with surrealism and poetic reflection. Edited by Eileen Myles, FUNNY/SAD captures the essence of life's duality in every line. Perfect for readers who find joy in life's contradictions, this collection is both deeply introspective and wildly imaginative, pulling you into a space where reality feels just a little bit stranger, and far more beautiful. Paired with access to Elena's psychological thriller Good Apples-a short film that serves as a prequel-the book opens the door to an immersive world of characters and feelings that linger long after the final page.
