Descriere magazin:
A memoir in essays that expands on the viral sensation The
Crane Wife with a frank and funny look at love, intimacy, and self in the twenty-first century. From friends and lovers to blood family and chosen family, this elegant masterpiece (Roxane Gay, New York Times bestselling author of Hunger ) asks what more expansive definitions of love might offer us all. A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: TIME, THE GUARDIAN, GARDEN & GUN
Hauser builds their life\'s inventory out of deconstructed personal narratives, resulting in a reading experience that\'s rich like a complicated dessert--not for wolfing down but for savoring in small bites. --The New York Times
Hauser\'s wry, introspective investigation of their assumptions about love will likely free readers to examine their own personal narratives as well ... \'The rare happy ending I appreciate is one that makes room for the whole painful fact of the world at the same time it offers the reader some joy, \' they write. The
Crane Wife embraces this philosophy again and again as
Hauser excavates their past loves and losses, thoughtfully examines them and declares the pain of love to be worth the risk. -- BookPage Ten days after calling off their wedding, CJ Hauser went on an expedition to Texas to study the whooping crane. After a week wading through the gulf, they realized they\'d almost signed up to live someone else\'s life. Hauser releases themself from traditional narratives of happiness and goes looking for ways of living that leave room for the unexpected, making plenty of mistakes along the way. They kiss Internet strangers and officiates at a wedding. They reread Rebecca in the house their boyfriend once shared with his ex-wife and rewinds Katharine Hepburn in The Philadelphia Story to learn how not to lose yourself in a relationship. They think about Florence Nightingale at a robot convention and grief at John Belushi\'s rock and roll gravesite, and the difference between those stories we\'re asked to hold versus those we choose to carry. Told with the late-night barstool directness of your wisest, most bighearted friend, The
Crane Wife is a book for everyone whose life doesn\'t look the way they thought it would; for everyone learning to find joy in the not-knowing; for everyone trying, if sometimes failing, to build a new sort of life story, a new sort of family, a new sort of home, to live in.
