Totally Booked with Zibby Julie Fingersh, STAY: A Story of Family, Love, and Other Traumas
Zibby chats with debut author Julie Fingersh about her warm, witty, and beautifully written memoir, STAY: A Story of Family, Love, and Other Traumas. Julie and Zibby discuss the book's themes, from parenting adult children and the challenges of middle age to women’s ambitions and self-perception and confronting the lingering effects of past trauma. Julie also opens up about her brother’s struggle with mental illness, her daughter’s health challenges, and the disorienting feeling of envy as she watches her daughter step into her own extraordinary life (like when she was part of Hillary Clinton's motorcade). Finally, she describes Anna Quindlen’s influence on her work.
