Profile
Mary Gordon spent years clipping her mother’s rotting nails, rescuing her from drunken falls, and enduring wordless visits as her mother sat “with her head in her hands in a stupor” (a marked contrast from the proud woman Gordon had known while growing up in Brooklyn). Tonight she reads from her new memoir, Circling My Mother; after reading her remarkable recent conversation with A.M. Homes, we're eager to hear from Gordon in person.
