paperback. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

From the bestselling author of THE BINDING CHAIR, this acclaimed follow-up to her memoir THE KISS delves into the bonds of motherhood across four generations. Kathryn Harrison recalls her childhood when her young mother entrusted her to her British grandmother, a formidable figure from Shanghai. To Kathryn, her grandmother was a master storyteller, revealing tales of a magical, bygone era. After rejecting numerous suitors, she married at 43, becoming the mother of Harrison, who also resisted societal norms. Her mother appeared sporadically, urging unwanted glamour on her shy daughter. Growing up as an observer, Harrison sought to understand these women while carving her own path. In this witty and poignant memoir, she reflects on the ties that bind mothers and children, as well as the forces that can create distance. Harrison explores the legacy of storytelling from her grandmother and examines her family history for inspiration in her writing. As she watches her own children grow, she recalls moments of rebellion, the struggle for perfection leading to an eating disorder, and the tumultuous fights that marked her journey to independence. This evocative book invites readers to explore their own experiences of motherhood, loss, and renewal, capturing the unforgettable moments that shape domestic life.…
