À propos de ce produit

Product Information

Brilliantly original novelist and cultural critic Lynne Tillman became one of nearly 53 million Americans who care for a sick family member when her mother developed an unusual and little understood condition called Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus. With her notoriously exquisite writing style, Tillman describes, without flinching, the unexpected, heartbreaking, and frustrating years of caring for a sick parent. Mothercare is both a cautionary tale and sympathetic guidance for anyone who suddenly becomes a caregiver, responsible for the life of another - a parent, loved or not, or a friend.

Reviews

"MOTHERCARE is a close examination of the American healthcare system, the constraints of family, and the complexities of care. Tillman's writing is devastating--unsentimental, honest, full of sharp intelligence, and irrepressible wit. MOTHERCARE resonates." --Katie Kitamura, author of Intimacies "Lynne Tillman's terrifying, fascinating memoir shows how it is, the intimacy of mother-daughter connection at the ending, close-up, yet playing out within the larger world of race and class. MOTHERCARE is really really real!" --Nell Painter, author of Old in Art School: A Memoir of Starting Over "We know Lynne Tillman as a brilliant stylist in the first person, but she has never written a work as intimate and frank as MOTHERCARE. This philosophical memoir deepens my admiration for her inimitable sentences, drawing me confidently and calmly into contemplation of two universal, terrifying, awe-inspiring, ever-intertwined themes: death and moms." --Lucy Ives, author of Cosmogony "Only Lynne Tillman can write a clear-eyed account examining a topic that is anything but clearly comprehensible. This is a book about caring for the ill and dying, loss, regret, resentment, and contradictory emotions; all the mysteries of human attachments through their various transformations. MOTHERCARE is written with lucid, beautifully crafted prose. As in her novels, Tillman makes the ineffable a plain fact through her craft, by defying genres and presenting us with a text that's impossible to put down despite its difficult subject. This book is a gift that may or may not help caregivers, the grieving, and the dying--but it will certainly do no harm as it honors the fundamental commitment of an ideal physician. And that is a great achievement. The book is a pleasure to read, painful and funny but never maudlin. And that is an even greater achievement." --Gregg Bordowitz, author of Some Styles of Masculinity, "What happens when the parent-child relationship is inverted? Tillman, a novelist and critic, cared for her mother as she neared death, and in this book she captures her shifting feelings and responsibilities in unsparing detail." -- The New York Times "As Tillman expresses at the outset, each story of caregiving will be defined by the particulars: the medical conditions, the geography, the insurance, the budget, and the people involved, with their pasts and predispositions. Caring for her mother showed Tillman how much she herself had wanted to be cared for, how hard it is to share the burden with anyone else . . . Caring reveals, too, the threadbare nature of the support networks we have to cobble together when, predictably, inevitably, someone needs care; in this country, family obligations remain intensely personal. It is the reason, perhaps, why these common problems remains so uncommonly discussed." --Anna Altman, The New Republic "Lynne Tillman has a way of perceiving and writing that's both nuanced and incisive." --Anne Yoder, The Millions , A Most Anticipated Book of the Year "Both a treatise on the 'grueling obligation' of caregiving and an ineffectual American healthcare system, as well as the frank recounting of loving and living with a difficult parent, MOTHERCARE feels particularly apt for an era in which caregivers are more burnt than out than ever (or, perhaps more accurately, an era in which we're finally paying attention." --Eliza Smith, A Literary Hub Most Anticipated Book of the Year "An unsparing and heart-wrenching exploration of serious illness and its impact on everyone it touches." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Discerning . . . Tillman's frank insights on love and loss are cannily original." -- Publishers Weekly "MOTHERCARE is a close examination of the American healthcare system, the constraints of family, and the complexities of care. Tillman's writing is devastating--unsentimental, honest, full of sharp intelligence, and irrepressible wit. MOTHERCARE resonates." --Katie Kitamura, author of Intimacies "Lynne Tillman's terrifying, fascinating memoir shows how it is, the intimacy of mother-daughter connection at the ending, close-up, yet playing out within the larger world of race and class.
