Description
Minna Proctor's Landslide is a collection of interconnected essays exploring the author's complicated relationship with her mother-who was diagnosed with cancer at age 57 and died a decade later-and the ways in which their connection was long the "prime mover" of Proctor's life, the subtle force coursing beneath her adulthood.
