Katy was pretty and easy to love; Celia was unassuming and unprepossessing, according to their mother. But in her teens, Katy began to change, in bits, then bounds until finally, her doctors arrived at a diagnosis that then took all the familys energy, though they refused to admit it. Celia was on her own, developing hang-ups that come from a family suffering in silence.When Celia has her own childrentwins Alice and Hanna, saint and sinner, and their eternally disapproving brother Michaelher parenting is, predictably, unconventional. Alice and Hanna seem caught in the unforgiving hands of fate, doomed to repeat the cycle of Celia and Katy as Hanna spins out of control upon entering university.At the wryly beating heart of Im Sorry You Feel That Way are sisters, grappling with how family dynamics curdle or calcify over time. Bookended by funerals, where the foibles of human nature and the humor found at the nexus of denial and despair are inevitably on display, Im Sorry You Feel That Way is a whipsmart addition to a growing body of work by a gifted stylist.
