Paperback. Condition: Very Good. A family built, a family lost. Truth Has a Different Shape is a story of the power of compassion, of love and loss, revelations and relationship, and the evolution of self. Growing up in the 1970s and 1980s, Kari O?Driscoll was taught that strength and stoicism were one and the same. She was also taught that a girl?s job was to take care of everyone else. For decades, she believed these ideas, doing everything she could to try and keep the remaining parts of her family together, systematically anticipating disaster and fixing catastrophes one by one.Truth Has a Different Shape is one woman?s meditation on how societal and familial expectations of mothering influenced her sense of self and purpose, as well as her ideas about caretaking.
