Summary:
"When National Public Radio's Scott Simon (@nprScottSimon) began tweeting from his
mother
's hospital room in July 2013, he didn't know that his missives would soon spread so far. Simon's evocative and moving meditations spread virally. Over the course of a few days, Simon chronicled his
mother
's death and reminisced about her life, revealing her humor and strength, and celebrating familial love. This book expands on those tweets to create a memoir that is rich, deeply affecting, heart-wrenching, and exhilarating. His
mother
was a glamorous woman of the Mad Men-era; she worked in nightclubs, modeled, dated mobsters and movie stars, and was a brave single parent to young Scott Simon. Spending their last days together in a hospital ICU,
mother
and
son
reflect on their
lifetime
's worth of memories, recounting stories laced with humor and exemplifying resilience."--From publisher.
