'How I Became Dysfunctional: Notes from a Personal Perspective,' is a book of essays about the author’s family dysfunctions. It outlines the experiences of the author’s family and many other Black families in this country. It pinpoints the Post-Traumatic Slave Syndrome as being responsible for most of the dysfunctions in the Black family. The author gives details about his family’s dysfunction from his own unique perspective. He takes us on a brief-wild ride where you must buckle your seatbelt if you are to come out of this ride in one piece. It is an interesting, mesmerizing, and stimulating, and thought-provoking piece of work. His perspective is as close to the truth as you will ever get. You will find yourself laughing, crying, and most of all being enthralled by what you are reading.
