Night Ma

Description

For three and a half years,
calamities hit Elizabeth Knox and family in rapid succession. Her sister
suffered a psychotic break and was hospitalised against her will, her
husband’s brother died by violence, and her mother was diagnosed with
motor neurone disease.


In time, she was able to write about it.


Night, Ma
is a book about the net of family which people are held by, but also
slip through. About the actual daily work of love; the physical and
cognitive work love requires.


Knox is a beloved storyteller who
has given us other worlds; now she invites us into her own. With
characteristic generosity and transcendence, she guides us through time,
illness, loss, and the loneliness of unutterable experiences.


Night, Ma offers the gift of seeing as Elizabeth sees.
