Description

For Keeps is an inspirational collection by top women writers on their relationships with their bodies. It explores with awe and intelligence the surprises and challenges of our bodies–whether caused by illness, aging, injury, or life circumstances–that make us rethink the way we see ourselves, and even live our lives. These empowering essays reveal the journeys women take as they age and change in ways both good and bad. Sandra Benitez shares her struggles with illness over thirty years before finally and thrillingly exchanging pain and suffering for an ilesotomy bag. Kate Maloy reflects on the way her ex-husband’s illness provided an epiphany about living life to its fullest. Liza Nelson writes about how her mastectomy allowed her to finally divorce the breasts she’d always loathed. Each unique story in this collection brings the reader closer to understanding her relationship with her own body–both physical and emotional.
