SUMMARY:Susan Shapiro Barash in conversation about her new book  Estranged
DESCRIPTION:When life gets hard\, we turn to our female friends. Husbands\, partners\, and jobs come and go\, but close friendships are our bedrock. Until they’re not. \nWhat happens when these bonds sabotage instead of support? Who among us has the courage to walk away? And how can we protect ourselves from further heartbreak? \nIn her provocative new book\, Estranged: How Strained Female Friendships are Mended or Ended (Meridian Editions; April 1\, 2025)\, Susan Shapiro Barash takes a deep dive into the complexities of female friendships. By peeling back the societal narrative that our friendships are meant to last forever\, she uncovers a more nuanced reality: the closest bonds do falter. Through groundbreaking research and 150 interviews with women ranging in age from 20-80\, Barash reveals an emerging trend — estrangement among female friends. \nEstranged is an eye-opening investigation/practical guide for women navigating murky waters of suboptimal friendships. The book sheds light on unspoken pain of estrangement—both for the “estranger” who walks away and the “estrangee” who is left behind. Amid candid confessions of betrayal and grief\, Barash challenges women to reimagine their friendships and take the bold step of letting go when necessary. \nSusan will be in conversation with Meryl Moss\, President of Meryl Moss Media Group and Founder of BookTrib.com

SUMMARY:Jill Bialosky in conversation about her new book  The End is the Beginning
DESCRIPTION:When Iris Yvonne Bialosky died in an assisted care facility on March 29\, 2020\, it unleashed a torrent of emotions in her daughter\, Jill Bialosky. Grief\, of course\, but also guilt\, confusion\, and doubt\, all of which were compounded by the arrival of the COVID-19 pandemic which made it impossible for Jill to be with her mother as she was dying and to attend her mother’s funeral. \nNow\, with a poet’s eye for detail and a novelist’s flair for storytelling\, Jill presents a profoundly moving elegy unlike any other. Starting with her mother’s end and the physical/cognitive decline that led her to a care home\, The End Is the Beginning explores Iris’s battle with depression\, the tragedy of a daughter’s suicide\, a failed second marriage\, the death of her beloved first husband only five years into their young marriage\, her joyful teenage years\, and the trauma of losing her own mother at just eight years old. Compounding her challenges of raising four daughters without a livelihood or partner\, Iris’s life coincided with an age of unstoppable social change and reinvention\, when the roles of wife and mother she was raised to inhabit ceased to be the guarantors of stability and happiness. \n  \nJill Bialosky will be in conversation with Roxana Robinson\, author–most recently– of Leaving
