Can't We Talk about Something More Pleasant? by Roz Chast
5.0
Brilliant. Honest. Talented. Witty and Sharp. This graphic novel is a guidestone for everyone who is/has gone through the process of a parent’s (or any close one’s) death. Also a reflective tone of thinking about ones own process. A really great book putting much into perspective. A quick, enjoyable read despite the topic!

When they got back, my father remembered NOTHING. (final Israel trip)
I wish that, at the end of life, when things were truly "done," there was something to look forward to. (EXTREME palliative care, for when you've had it with everything else.
But she (mother) was hard, and she had a temper. I gave up on ever trying to get "my way." I barely knew it existed.
