Description

"Elegant prose...sheds new light on the father--daughter dynamic." Boston magazine There is a special bond between a father and a daughter, and when that bond is broken by death, a woman's life can change in profound and unexpected ways. In the tradition of Hope Edelman's bestselling Motherless Daughters, Clea Simon, critically acclaimed author of Mad House, delves into her own experience and those of other women to paint a multifaceted portrait of the father--daughter relationship and its lifelong ramifications. Filled with moving first--person stories and probing explorations of the psychology of adult women who lose their fathers, this is a work of emotional power and poignancy about love, anger, loss, and redemption that will touch women and men alike.
