Book Description:

Generational Dysfunctions Vol. I, is a series of stories about four women’s individual struggles.  The stories are outlined by their own poetic piece which gives a small peek into the women’s suffering and pain. These women reflect on their choices and decisions they have made which have paved the way to their current state of mind and circumstances.  Some of them feel regret and pain. They refuse to accept their circumstances until it is too late. Their pride will not allow them to reveal their true identity of just being human.  Then there are the women who will not waiver due to their position and try to embrace their conditions and learn from life’s lessons.  They hide from their truths and live by their own selfish reasoning.    The women’s reflections allow them to ponder bettering their current situations or living with the choices they have made. Their flaws are their internal scars. Not being self-aware may lead them to accept defeat, which will eventually be detrimental to their sanity. 

Detached, isolated, narcissistic, and deceitful are their imperfections.  Their stories touch on issues which women have suffered throughout time. As heartbreaking as some of their realities appear, their situations are realistic and relatable. Generational Dysfunctions is about what a woman will tolerate and deem acceptable as it directly relates to their own conditions.
