DescriptionIn 2014 I moved back to the United States after living abroad for fourteen years, my whole adult life, because my father was dying from cancer. Six weeks after I arrived in New York City, my father died. Six months after that I learned that I had inherited the gene that would cause me cancer too. When Jean Hannah Edelsteins world overturned she was forced to confront some of the big questions in life: How do we cope with grief? How does living change when we realize were not invincible? Does knowing our likely fate make it harder or easier to face the future? How do you motivate yourself to go on your OkCupid date when youre struggling with your own mortality? Written in her inimitable, wry and insightful voice, Jean Hannah Edelsteins memoir is by turns heart-breaking, hopeful and yet also disarmingly funny. This Really Isnt About You is a book about finding your way in life. Which is to say, its a book about discovering you are not really in control of that at all.About the AuthorJean Hannah Edelstein writes regularly for outlets including The Guardian and The Pool, and writes a weekly TinyLetter, which Vogue said pops up in your inbox like lucid dreaming. She also writes all of the marketing emails for Spotify, so youve probably deleted her work. This Really Isnt About You is her first book. She lives in Brooklyn.
