Quatrième de couverture :
When screenwriter Cora discovers she's pregnant, she begins to lose the superfluous things in her 'big, loud life'. One of which is the father of her child.
But as Cora begins to write letters to her baby - just in case she doesn't pull through the delivery - her own show-business mother begins to muscle in, a grandmother-to-be, with a string of first-night fantasies.
As much as Cora tries to change her life, she discovers that for better or for worse, family will always be with you.

Biographie de l'auteur :
Carrie Fisher, the daughter of Debbie Reynolds and Eddie Fisher, became an icon when she starred as Princess Leia in the original Star Wars trilogy. Her star-studded career includes roles in numerous films such as The Blues Brothers and When Harry Met Sally. She is the author of five bestselling novels, Wishful Drinking, Surrender the Pink, Delusions of Grandma, The Best Awful, and Postcards from the Edge, which was made into a hit film starring Shirley MacLaine and Meryl Streep. Fisher's experience with addiction and mental illness -- and her willingness to speak honestly about them -- have made her a sought-after speaker and respected advocate.
