She wants him to learn this history from her, not anyone else; but she worries about the effect this truth may have on him. Told in essays and graphic narrative shorts, \u003ci\u003eMother Noise \u003c\/i\u003eis a stunning memoir that delves deep into our responsibilities as parents while celebrating the moments of grace and generosity that mark a true friendship--in this case, her benefactor and champion through the years, David Sedaris. This is a powerful memoir about addiction, motherhood, and Cindy's ongoing effort to reconcile the two. Are we required to share with our children the painful details of our past, or do we owe them protection from the harsh truth of who we were before? With dark humor and brutal, clear-eyed honesty, \u003ci\u003eMother Noise\u003c\/i\u003e brilliantly captures and gorgeously renders our desire to look hopefully forward--while acknowledging the darkness of the past.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Cindy House\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1797142348\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781797142340\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Simon \u0026amp; Schuster Audio\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/17\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e CD\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.60h x 5.80w x 0.60d","brand":"Cindy House","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":44054797156607,"sku":"9781797142340","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3098109c-de2b-4598-b979-9367ac0a0786.jpg?v=1685032051","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/mother-noise-cindy-house-9781797142340","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
