Inspiration and advice for adult daughters on making peace
with Mom while there's still time--from the best-selling
author of Surrendering to Marriage Iris
Krasnow--mother, daughter, and best-selling
Journalist--tackles the toughest relationship in the lives
of many grown women: the mother-daughter bond. With women's
life expectancy inching up past eighty, you may be embroiled
with your mother well past the time your own hair turns
white. The good news: Living longer means more time to make
peace--and this book shows you how. Drawing on her
own experience with her colorful eighty-four-year-old mother
and the collective wisdom of more than one hundred other
adult daughters, Krasnow offers a fresh perspective on how
to overcome the anger, guilt, and resentment that can
destroy a family. The time to repair the bond is now, she
reminds us: You can't kiss and make up at her funeral. The
key is to let go of the fantasy mom and embrace the
flesh-and-blood woman, with all her flaws.
