SIGH, GONE: A MISFIT’S MEMOIR OF GREAT BOOKS, PUNK ROCK AND THE FIGHT TO FIT IN written and read Phuc Tran

While the world is taking notice of Phuc Trans’ first picture book, CRANKY, my interview was as much about the memoir he reads, SIGH, GONE: A MISFIT’S MEMOIR OF GREAT BOOKS, PUNK ROCK, AND THE FIGHT TO FIT IN. Both books have a genuine core of knowing, as he said in interview, “there’s nothing that guts a kid more than when their important adults don’t take them seriously.” His work combines comedic with candid in a way that delights and speaks to deep emotions.
