Ebook About From one of America’s greatest comic novelists, a hilarious new novel about aging, family, loneliness, and loveThe Bergman clan has always stuck together, growing as it incorporated in-laws, ex-in-laws, and same-sex spouses. But families don’t just grow, they grow old, and the clan’s matriarch, Joy, is not slipping into old age with the quiet grace her children, Molly and Daniel, would have wished. When Joy’s beloved husband dies, Molly and Daniel have no shortage of solutions for their mother’s loneliness and despair, but there is one challenge they did not count on: the reappearance of an ardent suitor from Joy’s college days. And they didn’t count on Joy herself, a mother suddenly as willful and rebellious as their own kids.The New York Times–bestselling author Cathleen Schine has been called “full of invention, wit, and wisdom that can bear comparison to [ Jane] Austen’s own” (The New York Review of Books), and she is at her best in this intensely human, profound, and honest novel about the intrusion of old age into the relationships of one loving but complicated family. They May Not Mean To, But They Do is a radiantly compassionate look at three generations, all coming of age together.Book They May Not Mean To, But They Do: A Novel Review :
This book started slowly and I set it aside often, but eventually the story picked up the pace, or at least piqued my interest, so I’m glad I continued reading. I found Joy to be a warm and endearing character. I cheered her determination and her fierce desire to maintain her independence as she ages. She faces the obstacles and fears with stoicism, alarm, resignation and pluck, in equal measure. This isn’t a particularly humorous book, at least not as “hilarious” as it touted to be. There are funny moments, but more often, it is sobering, sad and unflinching. The book looks starkly at what it means to age in today’s society, a society that worships youth and busy-ness and health. We all age, and we may all eventually reach the age that Joy has achieved. Yet, Joy’s children, Daniel and Molly, have the self-satisfied air of relative youth, as if age will never come for them too. Molly and Daniel are portrayed as harried and well-meaning, career-driven and each raising children of their own, while trying to keep an eye on their widowed mother. Their easy smugness is nearly insufferable. Molly is especially irritating and wearying. As “adult children” caring for an aging parent, their sympathy is wrapped in duty, self-absorption, obligation, impatience, greed and too-little empathy and compassion. Not exactly light reading. This book will resonate most with older readers who are facing change, retirement, illness, bereavement and aging, against the backdrop of intricate and complicated family bonds. A good read with insight and wisdom into what it means to be elderly. This is a very special book. I bought it after hearing a review and thinking I would relate to Molly, the daughter who moved far away from her parents and can barely endure the guilt she suffers since committing this "geographic treachery." As I read, though, I ended up with the strongest attachment to Joy, Molly's mother, who, at 85, has transitioned from a life she loved to one she hardly recognizes. As her losses---like her mail---pile up around her, I kept expecting her to fold, admit defeat, and allow her children to take control of her life. That would be the easiest road to take, right? Wrong, says Joy's heart. Sharing this part of Joy's life, watching her struggle to hold on to both her family and her independence, was a great literary joy (!) for me. I treasure the memory of this book, as well as the perspective it gave me on my own mother, who is, I see now, the Joy in my own life. As I said, this is a very special book.
