Anya Yurchyshyn: My Dead Parents w/ Emily Gould

Anya Yurchyshyn presents a haunting, unforgettable family story about hidden secrets and a daughter’s journey to understand her parents in My Dead Parents.

In this inspiring and unflinchingly honest debut memoir, Anya interrogates her memories of her family and examines what it means to be our parents’ children. What do we inherit, and what can we choose to leave behind? How do we escape the ghosts of someone else’s past? And can we learn to love our parents not as our parents, but simply as people? Universal and personal; heartbreaking and redemptive, My Dead Parentshelps us to see why sometimes those who love us best hurt us most.

Anya will be in conversation with Emily Gould, novelist, blogger, and co-owner of Emily Books.
