Crosley, Sloane

An unflinching and deeply absorbing memoir of grief and loss, expertly narrated by the author.

While the final events of the book are slightly less satisfying, the outcome doesn’t affect one’s overall enjoyment. At the heart of the story is Crosley’s talent for unpacking the paradoxes of love, commitment, and societal convention with humor and sensitivity.

Crosley's growth and maturity as a writer shines in this collection, and it's fair to say: she is the millennial's Nora Ephron. [See Prepub Alert, 10/29/17.]
