Can't We Talk about Something More Pleasant? - Roz Chast

Roz Chast, longtime creator of the squiggly, charmingly absurd New Yorker cartoons, has written a profoundly moving meditation on mortality and the bonds between parents and children.  Chast’s memoir, the story of her 90-something parents' final stages of life, tugs at the heartstrings while being as hilarious and vividly weird as you'd expect.
