Claire Fontaine: Have Mother, Will Travel, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Glamour magazine called Come Back, the first nonfiction collaboration by Claire and Mia Fontaine, the "best mother-daughter memoir," while the New York Times Book Review praised it as, "a testament to the power of the love."

The Fontaines are back with Have Mother, Will Travel, a beautiful, thoughtful, insightful, inspiring book that brilliantly captures the changing relationship between a mother and her adult daughter. Seen within the context of an unforgettable round-the-world adventure, the emotional milestones reached and the new understandings and appreciations achieved will warm the heart and nourish the soul---an extraordinary journey that should not be missed by armchair travelers and by mothers and daughters everywhere.

What happens when a mother hitting her life's restart button and a daughter questioning her own future pack their bags---and their baggage---for a trip around the world?

• Midlife Meets Quarter-Life Crisis: With Claire facing fifty and Mia questioning... everything, their clashing perspectives on life, love, and larvae-infested rivers make for a funny and relatable journey.
• The Global Scavenger Hunt: From China to Egypt, follow the Fontaines on a high-stakes scavenger hunt across four continents that tests their wits, their patience, and their relationship.
• Hilarious Travel Disasters: Whether it's an ill-advised camel ride in a skirt or drinking tap water in Beijing, if something can go wrong on this trip, it probably will.
• Dual Mother-Daughter POV: Told in their alternating, deeply personal, and often contradictory voices, this memoir explores who they are becoming---both to each other and to themselves.
