Synopsis
In twelve months between 2007 and 2008, Christopher Buckley coped with the passing of his father, William F. Buckley, the father of the modern conservative movement, and his mother, Patricia Taylor Buckley, one of New York's most glamorous and colorful socialites. He was their only child and their relationship was close and complicated. Writes Buckley: "They were not - with respect to every other set of loving, wonderful parents in the world - your typical mom and dad." As Buckley tells the story of their final year together, he takes readers on a surprisingly entertaining tour through hospitals, funeral homes, and memorial services, capturing the heartbreaking and disorienting feeling of becoming a 55-year-old orphan. Buckley maintains his sense of humor by recalling the words of Oscar Wilde: "To lose one parent may be regarded as a misfortune. To lose both looks like carelessness." Just as Calvin Trillin and Joan Didion gave readers solace and insight into the experience of losing a spouse, Christopher Buckley offers consolation, wit, and warmth to those coping with the death of a parent, while telling a unique personal story of life with legends., In twelve months between 2007 and 2008, Christopher Buckley coped with the passing of his father, William F.

    Wow! -- I jumped at chance to immediately leave feedback for this seller, "The Circular Argument." -- The packaging alone was so impeccable I would have left a comment if the box were empty. Thank you for your great care. I received the item immediately wiithin days of ordering and the communication of the system was perfect. I will be back and am so looking forward to returning to the composers and musicians of Wyndham Hill and others. -- ***** Five Star and more!

    This seller is highly recommended. I've been looking for this CD for several years. Finally found it here and is has the 8 bonus tracks. Item as described, packed great, and a great value (never seen one under $30). Shipping took a while, but coming from across the pond, that was anticipated. This seller is highly recommended. His has many hard- to find CDs.
