Om denne bog
Set in the volatile 1970s and ''80s, when social norms and expectations were changing rapidly, Leaving Now is the emotionally candid story of a mother''s anguish as she leaves her husband to love a woman. In this second book, Paré masterfully blends aspects of her personal journey with her own version of a well-loved fairy tale. Gudrun, the five-hundred-year-old mother of Hansel and Gretel, appears hazily in the narrator''s kitchen -- presumed dead, all but written out of her own tale, but very much alive. Gudrun spins a yarn of love, loss and leaving, offering comfort and wisdom to the conflicted young mother. Raising children is not for the faint of heart; all parents know the anguish of parting from a child, even if for the briefest moment. This novel is for mothers, fathers, sons and daughters. It is for anyone who has ever lived in a family.
