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
