| | | Annotation:
After she and her father both came down with potentially fatal cancer, Kelly Corrigan began to write her memoir, but, surprisingly, cancer plays only a peripheral role in her story, taking a backseat to Corrigan's humorous accounts of her childhood, and her loving descriptions of her relationship with her parents and children.
| Praise| "It's easy to see why word of mouth and house party readings have fueled its rise up the nonfiction best-seller lists: Corrigan writes about her diagnosis and treatment but doesn't dwell on the physical effects of chemo or radiation. Instead, she writes of a happy childhood...and her complicated relationships with her father, mother, brothers and husband. She captures what should be, and frequently is, a golden time - suspended between being a mother and being a daughter, with her children and her parents surrounding her." 01/24/2008 |
