Teaser Tuesday: The End of Eve by Ariel Gore



This was supposed to be a book about a typical caregiver – a daughter with children of her own trying to help her terminal if eccentric weirdo-mother through a final year. But now here we were mid-narrative, more than a year gone by, and no one had died and I didn't have a mother anymore and the semester was wrapping up.

The End of Eve: A Memoir by Ariel Gore, published by Hawthorne Books.

Ariel Gore edits Hip Mama magazine and writes funny, contemplative books about motherhood, happiness, and the human condition. We need more like her! The End of Eve is Gore's story of caring for her dying, but difficult, mother.
