For You, Mom. Finally. by Ruth Reichl
Bestselling author Ruth Reichl examines her mother's life-and gives voice to the unarticulated truths of a generation of exceptional womenA former New York Times restaurant critic, editor in chief of Gourmet, and the author of three bestselling memoirs, Ruth Reichl is a beloved cultural figure in the food world and beyond. For You, Mom. Finally. is her openhearted investigation of the life of a woman she realizes she never really knew-her mother. Through letters and diaries-and a new afterword relating the wisdom she's gained after sharing her story-Reichl confronts the transition her mother made from a hopeful young woman to an increasingly unhappy older one and recognizes the huge sacrifices made to ensure that her daughter's life would not be as disappointing as her own.
Ruth Reichl is the bestselling author of Tender at the Bone, Comfort Me with Apples, and Delicious!, as well as the memoirs Tender at the Bone and Comfort Me with Apples. Her spouse, kid, and two cats reside with her in New York City.
