BOOK OF THE WEEK:
Walker’s book is written with the soul of a poet–someone unafraid to see both the difficulty and the gift of suffering. At times painful, poignant, laugh-out-loud-funny, and full of perfect details, this book is a love story from daughter to mother, mother to daughter, and ultimately to the reader.
