In Her Wake is a rare thing: the story of a psychiatrist analyzing her own psychological drama. Nancy Rappaport was just four years old when her mother-a prominent Boston activist and socialite-committed suicide. Decades later, Rappaport, a child psychiatrist with three children of her own, pieced together a complex mosaic of her \"mama.\" In Her Wake sheds light on the nature of hurting and healing, and is a potent reminder that love outlasts death. | In Her Wake by Nancy Rappaport, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
