Sister Mother Husband Dog: (Etc.)

Sister Mother Husband Dog: (Etc.)

Bestselling author Delia Ephron shares a deeply personal collection of stories and essays, anchored by a loving remembrance of her sister Nora.
Â
In Sister Mother Husband Dog, Delia Ephron brings her trademark wit and effervescent prose to a series of autobiographical essays about life, love, sisterhood, movies, and family. In â€œLosing Nora,â€ she deftly captures the rivalry, mutual respect, and intimacy that made up her relationship with her older sister and frequent writing companion. Other essays run the gamut from a humorous piece about love and the moviesâ€”how one romantic comedy completely destroyed her twentiesâ€”to the joy of girl friends and best friendship, the magical madness and miracle of dogs, keen-eyed observations about urban survival, and a serious and affecting memoir of life with her mother and growing up the child of alcoholics. Ephronâ€™s eloquent style and voice illuminate every page of this superb and singular work.
