A prize-winning tour de force when it came out in France, Violaine Huisman's remarkable debut novel is about a daughter's inextinguishable love for her magnetic, mercurial mother. Beautiful and charismatic, Catherine, aka 'Maman', smokes too much, drives too fast, laughs too hard and loves too extravagantly. During a joyful and chaotic childhood in Paris, her daughter Violaine wouldn't have it any other way.

But when Maman is hospitalised after a third divorce and breakdown, everything changes. Even as Violaine and her sister long for their mother's return, once she's back Maman's violent mood swings and flagrant disregard for personal boundaries soon turn their home into an emotional landmine. As the story of Catherine's own traumatic childhood and coming of age unfolds, the pieces come together to form an indelible portrait of a mother as irresistible as she is impossible, as triumphant as she is transgressive.

With spectacular ferocity of language, a streak of dark humor and stunning emotional bravery, 
The Book of Mother is an exquisitely wrought story of a mother's dizzying heights and devastating lows, and a daughter who must hold her memory close in order to let go.

Good stuff with some minor caveats
Flavor Name: Beef, Size: 1.5 Pound (Pack of 1)
My dog generally loves these. They seem to be a good quality ingredients. I think he likes the taste, but do know that they have a very smoky smell. I don’t know how fresh jerky can be, but they do seem like a very good value for the money. Another brand sells dog jerky as human quality. And my dog also likes that. The other brand is much softer, and this brand, wag, is a bit harder. So perhaps, if you have an older dog or a dog with teeth issues, this might not be the best choice.

Tasty treats, but don’t like the size.
Flavor Name: Beef, Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Dogs loved them, and it’s a great price for the amount of ounces you receive, but the individual pieces are too big - only 8 total in the package. I break them in half for my two dogs.
