Glitter and glue

Glitter and Glue is a memoir by Kelly Corrigan that delves into the complex relationship between mothers and daughters.

The book recounts Corrigan's experience as a nanny in Australia, where she comes to appreciate her mother's role as the 'glue' that holds the family together, contrasting with her father's more carefree 'glitter' persona.

Through this journey, Corrigan reflects on the lessons she learned from her mother and how they shaped her own approach to family life.
