“A painfully beautiful memoir….Written with such restraint as to be both heartbreaking and instructive.”
—E. L. Doctorow
A revered, many times honored (George Polk, Peabody, and Emmy Award winner, to name but a few) journalist, novelist, and playwright, Roger Rosenblatt shares the unforgettable story of the tragedy that changed his life and his family. A book that grew out of his popular December 2008 essay in
The New Yorker, Making Toast
is a moving account of unexpected loss and recovery in the powerful tradition of
About Alice
and
The Year of Magical Thinking
. Writer Ann Beattie offers high praise to the acclaimed author of
Lapham Rising
Beet
for a memoir that is, “written so forthrightly, but so delicately, that you feel you’re a part of this family.”
