Maggie and her mother, Iris, weren’t close, especially since Maggie came out, but she never thought they would run out of time to figure each other out. Now in her late twenties, Maggie is finally in something resembling a serious relationship, wondering if some of whatever shaped her parents’ decades-long love story might exist after all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverwhelmed by her grief and frustrated with her family, Maggie decides to escape the shiva and hand-deliver her mother’s letters. The ensuing road trip takes her over miles of California highways, through strangers’ recollections of a second, hidden life (that seems almost impossible to reconcile with the Iris she knew), and a journey through her own fears as she navigates her new relationship. As she fills in the details of Iris’s story, Maggie must confront the possibility that almost everything she knew about her mother — her marriage, her lukewarm relationship to Judaism, her disapproval of her daughter’s queerness — is more meaningful than she ever allowed herself to imagine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eType: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition: Good condition, general wear and tear\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMarks \/ Annotations: slight folds on cover, no annotations\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePage count: 336 pages\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"litsy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51983973318955,"sku":null,"price":12.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/1001\/0155\/files\/25.png?v=1769487692","url":"https:\/\/lit-sy.com\/products\/all-my-mothers-lovers-ilana-masad","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
