Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. Amidst the control, confusion, and chaos caused by her eight-times-married mother, this authors story spans the extreme emotions of a mother-daughter relationship, touching on cyclical family dysfunction, addiction, and forgiveness. Beginning at the age of five, Sondra spends decades auditioning for the role of her authentic self. Her dazzling mother casts her as confidante and co-conspirator in her affairs and serial marriages. Sondra vacillates between fierce anger toward her motherwho does nothing to protect her from physical, sexual, and emotional abuseand a desperate need for her love and approval. As an adult, Sondra enters into and stays in a toxic marriage for years, engaging in affairs with married men rather than divorcing. When therapy and AA eventually propel her out of the sense-deadening haze of alcohol and cigarettes, she summons the courage to tell her husband she plans to leave him. He reacts by playing on her biggest fear, telling her, Youre going to turn out just like your mother. Sondra attempts to establish a sober and separate identity, but tensions between her and her mother further increase when she marries someone newa man who displaces her mother as the epicenter of her lifeand her mothers seventh marriage ends. During this time, traumatic childhood memories suddenly surface and a seismic shift occurs, freeing Sondra from her need for maternal connection. But establishing a life independent from her mother proves far more complicated than she could have imagined. This item is printed on demand.
