Jarred McGinnis: There Is No Meant to Be

Outlaw ancestors, family ghosts, a near-fatal accident, and a refusal to behave like a proper memoir: Jarred McGinnis’ There Is No Meant to Be unearths the legends, violence, tenderness, and absurdity that run through his family line, dismantling rules and literary boundaries to ask what truly makes a life.

Hear the author of The Coward on care, fatherhood, disability, and why even the hardest lives can still contain laughter.
