Memoir Armoire

book news and short reviews. all memoir, all the time.
by diane shipley.

I had no idea Sue Monk Kidd, author of The Secret Life of Bees (which I just loved) had written a memoir with her daughter, but she has. Last week it came out in paperback with a new cover, and according to Sue on her website:
Traveling with Pomegranates has often been described by readers as a memoir about change. Certainly, in its pages, Ann and I are each in the throes of tumultuous transitions: Ann is a young woman leaving college with no idea of what to do with her life, while I am turning 50, headed toward older womanhood with no idea of what to do with my life either.
Sounds like a lot of mums and daughters will relate.
