The Family Fang by Kevin Wilson
Performance artists Caleb and Camille Fang are committed to making great art. But when an artist's work is about subverting normality, raising well-adjusted children can be difficult. Just ask an Annie Fang and Buster. They appeared (unwillingly) in madcap parts by their parents for as long as they can recall. But when they're grown up, their childhood's turmoil has made it hard to cope with life outside of the crazy world of their parents' fishbowl.
A String in the Harp by Nancy Bond
The book is about an American family in a small town in Wales, doing a semester abroad. The house is small and weird and the family can't figure out how to heat it or cook decent food in it, and they're all angry at each other and mourning a recent death so they're getting on each other's nerves constantly. But over time they adapt, adjust and work together to build themselves a deeply cosy home.
The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls
The Glass Castle is a Jeannette Walls autobiography of the year 2005. The book recounts Jeannette and her siblings' unhealthy, poverty-stricken childhood at the hands of their profoundly dysfunctional parents. The title refers to the long-held intent of her father to construct his dream house, a glass castle.
