"The depth of insight of The End of Eve often took my breath away. Not to mention its drop-dead humor, the sadness, and the rage. Ariel Gore's memoir is in its essence a how to book. In the face of death, our grief, how to breathe, how to be brave, how to be funny, how to be authentic. How to make it through. But most of all: tenderness -- how Ariel puts human tenderness on the page is an act of poetry damn close to sublime." -- Tom Spanbauer , In The City of Shy Hunters "Ariel Gore has changed my mind twice before, on motherhood and happiness-- now she's stunned me thrice. This is the story of the world's most startlingly insane, beautiful mother who was supposed to die in one year-- but nearly killed her entire family and staff before she was through. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll need a bucket. Don't die-- or surrender!-- before you read her tale." -- Susie Bright , Mommy's Little Girl: Susie Bright on Sex, Motherhood, Pornography, and Cherry Pi, "Ariel Gore has changed my mind twice before, on motherhood and happiness-- now she's stunned me thrice.

Synopsis
At age 39, Ariel Gore has everything she's always wanted: a successful writing career, a long-term partnership, a beautiful if tiny home, a daughter in college and a son in preschool. But life's happy endings don't always last. If it's not one thing, after all, it's your mother. Her name is Eve. Her epic temper tantrums have already gotten her banned from three cab companies in Portland. And she's here to announce that she's dying. "Pitifully, Ariel," she sighs. "You're all I have." Ariel doesn't want to take care of her crazy dying mother, but she knows she will. It's the right thing to do, isn't it? And, anyway, how long could it go on? "Don't worry," Eve says. "If I'm ever a burden, I'll just blow my brains out." Amidst the chaos of clowns and hospice workers, pie and too much whiskey, Ariel's own ten-year relationship begins to unravel. Darkly humorous and intimately human, The End of Eve redefines the meaning of family and everything we've ever been taught to call "love."
