In this deeply etched and haunting memoir, Vivian Gornick tells the story of her lifelong battle with her mother for independence. Gornick's groundbreaking book confronts what Edna O'Brien has called "the principal crux of female despair": the unacknowledged Oedipal nature of the mother-daughter bond. Born and raised in the Bronx, the daughter of "urban peasants," Gornick grows up in a household dominated by her intelligent but uneducated mother's romantic depression over the early death of her husband.

Some fathers provide everything, except the one thing a child remembers most, presence. Better Than My Father is a memoir for anyone who grew up learning to be strong before learning to be seen, who mastered survival, achievement, and silence, yet still carried an unnamed ache into adulthood. With unflinching honesty and compassion, Kizito Mbaekwe traces the inheritance many families never talk about, discipline without intimacy, masculinity built on duty, and love expressed through provision rather than tenderness.

On a quiet Missouri farm, Marvin Wilmes's childhood is shaped by the warmth of a sprawling Catholic family and the gentle rhythms of rural life. But when a series of losses—his beloved dog, a cousin's tragic drowning, the death of President Kennedy—shatter that innocence, Marvin's faith begins to falter. As he grows, the questions deepen: Why does God seem silent in the face of heartbreak? How do you hold on to hope when prayers go unanswered? In this candid memoir, Marvin traces his journey from the security of family traditions through the storms of grief, rebellion, and spiritual drift.
