Description
New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Finney Boylan returns with a remarkable memoir about gender and parenting that discusses how families are shaped and the difficulties and wonders of being human. A father for six years, a mother for ten, and for a time in between, neither, or both, Jennifer Finney Boylan has seen parenthood from both sides of the gender divide. When her two children were young, Boylan came out as transgender, and as Jenny transitioned from a man to a woman and from a father to a mother, her family faced unique challenges and questions. In this thoughtful, tear-jerking, hilarious memoir, Jenny asks what it means to be a father, or a mother, and to what extent gender shades our experiences as parents. Through both her own story and incredibly insightful interviews with others, including Richard Russo, Edward Albee, Ann Beattie, Augusten Burroughs, Susan Minot, Trey Ellis, Timothy Kreider, and more, Jenny examines relationships between fathers, mothers, and children; people's memories of the children they were and the parents they became; and the many different ways a family can be. With an Afterword by Anna Quindlen, Stuck in the Middle with You is a brilliant meditation on raising—and on being—a child.Now with Extra Libris material, including a reader’s guide and bonus content

Reads like a long conversation with an old friend; at any rate, a friend who does most of the talking! Of all her three memoirs, this one is probably the most intellectually probing and detached, no small achievement considering it is also the most intimate and personal. It's also fiercely funny at points. This time around the story is not just the tale the journey of Jenny and her wife and children, although that is told again and TMI relief, but an exploration into the meaning and impacts of all of our parent-child relationships and the gender filters through which we view our lives. Thankfully, the issue of gender seems to take a back seat in this one and perhaps that is ultimately the point. Time, age, and perspective make this one the most profoundly mature of three excellent books in her memoir series. Jenny is now so comfortable in her own skin, and seems so happy in her own life, that now can come reflection and the quest for understanding.
