Equal Affections by David Leavitt

Equal Affections is the eloquent, powerful novel of a funny, loving, tragic, and complex family whose indomitable matriarch, Louise Cooper, has had cancer for 20 years. Battling both the slow withdrawal of her husband and the ravages of her disease, Louise must realize that even the kindness of her children will not save her. A superb modern novelist of feeling.--Kirkus Reviews.
