MEET BARBARA ROSENBERG: a yenta, a homophobe, and now a terminally ill woman, writing the story of her life from her Manhattan apartment. Blending her retelling of her marriage, career, and dramatic aspirations with her chaotic, embittered reflections on Karl Marx, philosophy, and the Jewish diaspora, she tries to come to terms with her two greatest disappointments: an estranged trans son, and a best friend whose betrayal still haunts her. Author of Confessions of the Fox, Jordy Rosenberg is known for tackling the messy intersections of family, identity, and regret through sharply written characters.
