Overview"""The really extraordinary thing about this book is that it tells the story of how one mother embarked on her feverish course of involvement in the AIDS community, in large part to help herself come to terms with the possibility of her son's death. But all that work really doesn't prepare her. She becomes incredibly intimate with a series of strangers, yet she and her son have more and more trouble talking about HIS illness, which is the reason she is doing all this in the first place. She becomes indispensable at the bedsides of countless other people, but when Gary is dying, she still feels helpless, disconnected and as if she'd never set foot in an AIDS hospital room. What is moving about this book is the fact that all this preparation doesn't prepare, because NOTHING can prepare her."" -- Susan Choi, Pulitzer Prize finalist, American Woman" Full Product DetailsAuthor: Freda WagmanPublisher: CreateSpace Imprint: CreateSpace Dimensions: Width: 20.50cm , Height: 1.50cm , Length: 13.50cm Weight: 0.342kg ISBN: 9781419657139ISBN 10: 1419657135 Pages: 230 Publication Date: 01 December 2007 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In stock  We have confirmation that this item is in stock with the supplier.
