About This Item

New York: Ecco Press, 2005. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/Near Fine. 6x1x9. Signed by author. First edition. Signed by author without inscription. Very faint small stain to top page edges. Top edge of jacket spine lightly bumped. 2005 Hard Cover. 434 pp. " Last time you see someone and you don't  know it will be the last time. And all that you know now, if only you'd known then. But you didn't know, and now it's too late. And you tell yourself How could I have known, I could not have known. You tell yourself. This is my story of missing my mother. One day, in a way unique to you, it will be your story, too. From Joyce Carol Oates comes this candid, intimate, engaging, and personal new novel. Nikki Eaton, single, thirty-one, sexually liberated, and economically self-supporting, has never particularly thought of herself as a daughter. Yet, following the unexpected loss of her mother, she undergoes a remarkable transformation during a tumultuous year that brings stunning horror, sorrow, illumination, wisdom, and even—from an unexpected source—a nurturing love."
