Summary:
"FUNERAL FOR FLACA is an exploration of things lost and found--love, identity, family--and the traumas that transcend bodies, borders, cultures, and generations. Emilly Prado retraces her experience coming of age as a prep-turned-chola-turned-punk in this collection that is one-part memoir-in-essays, and one-part playlist, zigzagging across genres and decades, much like the rapidly changing and varied tastes of her youth." -- Amazon.com
