Buchzusammenfassung
Kelly Corrigan is a best-selling author based in Oakland, California. Hailed as the voice of her generation by O: The Oprah Magazine, her previous books include The Middle Place, Lift and Glitter and Glue. Corrigan is also the creative director of the Nantucket Project, an annual conference bringing together some of today’s most exciting thinkers and creatives.
Kelly Corrigan’s life, still overshadowed by the grief of losing her father Greenie, unfolds in a series of chaotic, heartfelt, and reflective moments. From navigating the daily turmoil of family life, including mediating her daughters’ arguments and managing her husband Edward’s detached parenting style, to grappling with her evolving role as a mother, Kelly confronts the emotional weight of responsibility. Her reflections extend to her upbringing in a devout Catholic household, her shifting relationship with faith, and the contrasting ways she and her father approached their shared battle with cancer. As she learns to balance her own needs with those of her family, Kelly finds wisdom in unexpected places—whether through a bat mitzvah ceremony that underscores the universal potential for growth or her father’s enduring belief in her ability to succeed despite setbacks. Parenthood, she realizes, is a continuous cycle of mistakes and forgiveness, a lesson reinforced by her struggles with Hershey, the family dog, and her own moments of frustration. Through it all, Kelly’s journey is one of resilience, self-discovery, and the enduring power of love and support.
