How can a woman learn to let go of the people she loves the most?
A tender, perceptive and wistful tale, Our Short History provides a charming, occasionally funny, character driven portrait of a mother trying to come to terms with both her death and her legacy.
“In Our Short History, Lauren Grodstein breaks your heart, then miraculously pieces it back together so it’s bigger (and stronger) than before. This novel will leave you appreciating both the messiness of life and the immense depths of love. -- Celeste Ng, author of Everything I Never Told You, Little Fires Everywhere, and Our Missing Hearts
