I love Lucy Knisley. When I was a teenager I read French Milk front to back multiple times. I can't believe it took me ten years to read another one of her books.
Displacement shows how Knisley matured as a storyteller. This one is quietly sad. She did a wonderful job of integrating her grandfather's memoir into this story about her elderly grandparents.
It's reflective, not depressing. And still has its funny moments. DAVE made me laugh out loud
