![]() ![]() Memoir.īetsy Warland has authored 14 books of creative nonfiction, essays and poetry. ![]() The 2021 edition, reprinted by Inanna for the launch of its Inanna Series, includes a new foreword by Susan Olding, and a new introduction by Warland that explores subsequent questions, insights, and tenderness only the passage of time can enable. The narrative traces the story that bound them together in the mother-daughter relationship, and her reflections help her find clarity, understanding and acceptance. This seemingly deluded conversation was the opening to a much deeper and compassionate relationship between mother and daughter. The book tracks how a mother-daughter relationship that was so disconnected was given an odd opening after the author's mother awakens and tells her the bizarre story that she had another (secret) daughter. The 2000 edition broke new ground in memoir form and uncharted storytelling. It is rare for an author to re-enter one of her books published twenty years ago. A reissued, classic feminist text that explores mother-daughter relationships, and aging and ill parents and their loss. ![]()
