The Years You Were Home (Hardcover)
The Years You Were Home (Hardcover)
Details
Every other book about the empty nest tells you to reinvent yourself by the second chapter. This one stops first. It begins with the day or the week they moved out - the drive, the packing, the night that followed - and gives you eight pages to write that down before it asks you a single question about your future.
It is for the mother whose last child has just gone, or is going, and who is proud of them and hollowed out at the same time; a real gift for a sister, a friend or a wife entering this season, and equally a book to buy for yourself. Inside are 63 guided prompt pages, letters to the mother you were and to each adult child, and a five-year section you return to at the end of each year.
