More on "Fun Home"

First off, not a big an of how she writes. She uses too many big words and crams too much into a sentence. Soemtimes less is more. I just feel as if she's trying to hard to make her story important and trying to make an impact on somebody, but it's actually making it worse. I appreciate he underlying sotry behind all the meaningless words, of how her life interconnnects, yet doesnt, with her father's. Yet I also find her outlook of her father selfish and self-centered. She connects everything about her to him...he was his own person too. But the coming of age, finding myself story is getting a little old, jsut because we've read so many of them. Something a little different would be nice....
