Sister Mother Husband Dog by Delia Ephron

Sister Mother Husband Dog by Delia Ephron

Bestselling author Delia Ephron shares a deeply personal collection of stories and essays, anchored by a loving remembrance of her sister Nora.
 
In Sister Mother Husband Dog, Delia Ephron brings her trademark wit and effervescent prose to a series of autobiographical essays about life, love, sisterhood, movies, and family. In "Losing Nora," she deftly captures the rivalry, mutual respect, and intimacy that made up her relationship with her older sister and frequent writing companion. Other essays run the gamut from a humorous piece about love and the movies--how one romantic comedy completely destroyed her twenties--to the joy of girl friends and best friendship, the magical madness and miracle of dogs, keen-eyed observations about urban survival, and a serious and affecting memoir of life with her mother and growing up the child of alcoholics. Ephron's eloquent style and voice illuminate every page of this superb and singular work.

Delia Ephron is a screenwriter and popular author. She is the author of novels such as The Lion Is In and Hanging Up, as well as children's books such as How to Eat Like a Child and Do I Have to Say Hello? You've Got Mail, The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, Hanging Up (based on her novel), and Michael are among her films. Her work has featured in publications such as The New York Times, O, Oprah Magazine, Vogue, and Vanity Fair. Her hit off-Broadway play Love, Loss, and What I Wore (co-written with Nora Ephron) ran for nearly two years and has been seen all over the world. She currently resides in New York City.
