Non-Fiction Memoir
For Kelly Corrigan, family is everything. At thirty-six, she
had a marriage that worked, two funny, active kids, and a
weekly newspaper column. But even as a thriving adult, Kelly
still saw herself as the daughter of garrulous
Irish-American charmer George Corrigan. She was living deep
within what she calls the Middle Place--"that sliver of time
when parenthood and childhood overlap"--comfortably wedged
between her adult duties and her parents' care. But Kelly is
abruptly shoved into coming-of-age when she finds a lump in
her breast--and gets the diagnosis no one wants to hear.
When George, too, learns that he has late-stage cancer, it
is Kelly's turn to take care of the man who had always taken
care of her--and to show us a woman who finally takes the
leap and grows up.
