A practical look at repairing adult mother-daughter bonds

Iris Krasnow centers the often complicated relationship between adult daughters and their mothers, using her own family experience alongside accounts from more than 100 women. The book addresses enduring anger, guilt, and resentment as obstacles to reconciliation, while urging daughters to see their mothers as imperfect people rather than ideals to be measured against. Framed around the limited time available to resolve long-held conflicts, it offers a perspective on making peace within a family relationship that may remain central well into adulthood.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Adult daughters seeking guidance on unresolved conflict with their mothers
  • Readers interested in family reconciliation and intergenerational relationships
  • Those drawn to experience-based discussions of mother-daughter dynamics

Book overview

Iris Krasnow-mother, daughter, and bestselling journalist-tackles the toughest relationship in the lives of many grown women: the mother-daughter bond. With women's life expectancy inching up past 80, you may be embroiled with your mother well past the time your own hair turns white. The good news: Living longer means more time to make peace-and this book shows you how. Drawing on her own experience with her colorful 85-year-old mother and the collective wisdom of more than 100 other adult daughters, Krasnow offers a fresh perspective on how to overcome the anger, guilt, and resentment that can destroy a family. The time to repair the bond is now, she reminds us: You can't kiss and make up at her funeral. The key is to let go of the fantasy mom and embrace the flesh-and-blood woman, with all her flaws.
