Reseña del libro "It was a Tuesday (en Inglés)"
Nobody tells you which day it will be. It was a Tuesday. There is the birth plan, laminated and flexible in bold. There is the aunt with the thirty-one-hour story, the group chat counting down the days, and the snowplow nobody mentioned. And then there is the moment no plan covers: a person who has been alive for nine minutes, lying on your chest. It Was a Tuesday follows twelve women through the strangest, funniest, most tender stretch of their lives. A choir director whose baby is late. A paralegal racing a blizzard. A sound engineer who finds her old road case in the garage. A grandmother who is finally asked how it was. Some are waiting, some are in the middle of it, and some are on the other side, wondering who they were before. These are stories about the days that turn out to matter: the baby shower where everyone has advice, the hospital room where everyone is crying, the weeks of casseroles and visitors and one missing dish towel, and the first Mother's Day, when four generations sit around one kitchen table. Inside this collection Part One: Waiting. Baby showers, due dates, and a laminated birth plan. Part Two: The Day. Eight thousand miles apart, a snowy drive, and a very quiet kind of miracle. Part Three: The Weeks After. Visitors, dish towels, and the question of who you were before. Part Four: The First Mother's Day. Family, forms, and the long way round.
