Biography

Poet and essayist Nina Riggs was just 37 years old when initially diagnosed with breast cancer: it was just one small spot. Within a year, she received the devastating news that her cancer was terminal. Exploring motherhood, marriage, friendship, and memory, Nina poses the questions: How does a dying person learn to live each day "unattached to outcome"? What makes a meaningful life when one has limited time? How do we want to be remembered? Published in 2018; 310 pages.
