- Synopsis
- In this memoir, the author recounts her family history and the ways it was shaped by muscular dystrophy. Two uncles died of the disease in 1922; her brother Richie died in the 1960s; and her own son, Jamie, died six years before this book was written. O'Hagan describes the ways this history of loss affected her boisterous Irish family. The book's main focus is Jamie's illness and death, and her anguished battle with guilt and grief.
