What Does A Mother Do When Her Teenaged Daughter Is Spinning Out Of Control And Nothing Is Bringing Her Back? Here Is A Searingly Honest Memoir Of Motherhood And A Testament To The Power Of Love And Family.When Adair Laras Daughter Morgan Turned Thirteen, She Was Transformed, Seemingly Overnight, From A Sweet, Loving Child Into An Angry, Secretive Teenager Who Would Neither Listen Nor Be Disciplined. The Author, Her Youngest Son, Patrick, Her Exhusband, Jim, And Her New Husband, Bill, All Stepped On A Fiveyear Rollercoaster Ride In Which Morgan Incarnated The Chaos Principle In Torn Jeans And Dyed Hair. Drinking, Drugging, Disappearing, Suspicious Companions, Failing And Cheating At School, Joy Riding In A Stolen Carthere Was No Variety Of Adolescent Acting Out That She Didnt Indulge In. For Adair Lara It Became An Endless Sojourn At The End Of Her Rope, A Trial Immensely Complicated By The Reappearance In Her Life Of Her Aging Father, A Man Who Had Abandoned His Wife And Seven Children Decades Earlier. Inevitably, Morgans Misbehavior Revives Memories Of Her Own Headstrong Adolescence, While Her Fathers Presence Makes Agonizingly Real For Her The Consequences Of Giving Up. Paradoxically, He Also Becomes The Source Of Her Best Advice.Hold Me Close, Let Me Go Is An Emotionally Charged, Often Brutally Honest Memoir That All Parents (And Anyone Who Was Ever A Teenager) Will Experience Shocks Of Recognition From While Reading. It Imparts Invaluable Lessons About Holding Loved Ones Close Through The Roughest Passages And About The Power Of Family To Overcome The Most Grievous Obstacles. Adair Lara Is A Cleareyed And Eloquent Witness To The Complex Costs And Rewards Of Motherhood, And Her Book Will Redefine For Readers Their Idea Of What Being A Good Enough Mother Really Means.
