My new book, Child of Earth and Starry Heaven, is about my mother's struggle with dementia. It looks to mythology, science, history, poetry and fiction to try to find meaning and beauty as her cognition fails. So many times during her struggle I had to remind myself to look for moments of grace. In some ways I wrote the book to find those moments and to hold on to them.

The book comes out April 11, 2025 and is available now on NetGalley.
