Subgenre Deep-Dive: Momoirs

What’s a Momoir you ask? Well, a Memoir, as you know, is essentially a personal account of memories—it’s narrative nonfiction. A Momoir is a personal account of memories from a mother’s perspective. We invite you to enjoy another collection deep-dive with Gregg as he hosts a discussion with Kelsey and Caitlin about a subgenre worth your time and attention: Momoirs! 

Our Momoir Recommendations:
Charles’ Choices: I Love You but I’ve Chosen Darkness by Claire Vaye Watkins and The Alpha Female Wolf: The Fierce Legacy of Yellowstone's 06 by Rick McIntyre.
Dave’s Double-feature: visit the streaming video section of our eLibrary and check out Kanopy where you’ll find "Lady Bird." And, pop into our DVD section for the 1999 film by the acclaimed Spanish film director Pedro Almodovar: "All About My Mother.”
