Register at montclairlibrary.org/events “I struck a note between parody and memoir,” Finck told Publishers Weekly earlier this year. “It’s a parody of books on how to parent an infant—older books that told you it was going to be beautiful and easy and didn’t mention anything difficult. I found them hilarious. Parenthood isn’t something that you need to trick people into, and those books felt ripe for making fun of. I’m also parodying the books that say parenthood is a horrible, difficult slog…I want to give companionship to readers: a means to vent their own feelings, whatever those are, even if they can’t be articulated.”
