Description:
Drawing from her own experience and the recollections of over seventy other granddaughters, Edelman explores the three-generation triangle from which women develop their female identities: the grandmother-mother-daughter relationship. With eloquent personal testimony, she demonstrates the vital roles grandmothers have played in their granddaughters' lives, as a source of unconditional love, family values and traditions, and backup parent, the ultimate safety net.
Expand description
Here are grandmothers in all their glory: The Benevolent Manipulator, whose love for her family is matched only by her desire for control; The Gentle Giant, awesome, respected, who possesses a quiet, behind-the-scenes power; The Autocrat, who rules her extended family like a despot; The Kinkeeper, the family hub, who offers a sense of cohesion to the extended clan.
With insight and compassion, Edelman probes this unique and emotionally-charged relationship in a book that is a true celebration of an extraordinary bond -- and a must read for every woman.
