The Middle Of Everything: Memoirs Of Motherhood

Rating:
Summary: Unforgettable
Review: What an extraordinary book this is! Herman, whose expansive, delightful style effortlessly incorporates an array of experience, moves with grace and perfect emotional honesty through this memoir. She analyzes the complexities of female friendships, the hunger for stardom and precariousness of various changes of life with an eye so fresh and discerning that readers may feel as if she is making these subjects anew. The book's final essay, about her daughter's breakdown, is something no reader is likely ever to forget--searing, devastaing, stunning.
