nA National Bestseller n I read it twice, laughing, cringing, and even tearing up. -- Judy Blume, New York Times n n Powerful . . . All Grown Up is so intimately and] sharply observed. -- Vogue n n Bravo to Attenberg, who, with hilarity and honesty, tells the story of an adult woman who wants what she wants, not what shes supposed to want. -- Marie Claire n n Who is Andrea Bern? When her dippy therapist asks the question, Andrea knows the right things to say: shes a designer, a friend, a daughter, a sister. But its what she leaves unsaid--shes alone, a drinker, a former artist, a shrieker in bed, captain of the sinking ship that is her flesh--that feels the most true. Everyone around her seems to have a different idea of what it means to be an adult, though. But when Andreas niece finally arrives, born with a heartbreaking ailment, the Bern family is forced to reexamine what really matters. Will this drive them together or tear them apart? Told in gut-wrenchingly honest, mordantly comic vignettes, All Grown Up is a breathtaking display of Jami Attenbergs powers as a storyteller and a whip-smart examination of one womans life, lived entirely on her own terms.n
