If You Knew Suzy: A Mother, a Daughter, a Reporter's Notebook“Katherine Rosman has a great gift for articulating the yearnings of daughterhood and the mysteries of motherhood.” “Katherine Rosman’s voice rings with truth, pain, and hard-won humor as she reports from the heart in this bold, cathartic tale of a daughter’s search to find meaning in her mother’s death.... This book beats with a heart of its own.” In lively, intimate prose, Wall Street Journal culture reporter Katherine Rosman reconnects with her late mother by reporting on the life she led outside of her roles as mom and wife. |
