Pat's mother, who stood by her through her darkest years as a drug addict, was a small-town icon as a composer, pianist, organist, and musical director. She is suddenly unable to be the accomplished, independent person she once was. Now Pat has two goals: to help her daughter avoid the mistakes that derailed her own life, and to see her mother's masterpiece, \"An American Requiem,\" find a new life and a new audience in her mother's lifetime. Along the way, Pat rediscovers her own strength, humor, and rebelliousness at the most unlikely moments.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Feminist Press at CUNY, The","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47040446169328,"sku":"9781558617018","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781558617018_p0.jpg?v=1763757854","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781558617018","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
