Some Assembly Required: A Journal of My Son's First Son

Look out for Anne's latest book, Hallelujah Anyway, on sale now.Â

â€œIf there is a doyenne of the parenting memoir, it would be Anne Lamott.â€â€”Time

In Some Assembly Required, Anne Lamott enters a new and unexpected chapter in her own life: grandmotherhood. Stunned to learn that her son, Sam, is about to become a father at nineteen, Lamott begins a journal about the first year of her grandson Jaxâ€™s life. In careful and often hilarious detail, Lamott and Samâ€”about whom she first wrote so movingly in Operating Instructionsâ€”struggle to balance their changing roles. By turns poignant and funny, honest and touching,Â Some Assembly RequiredÂ is the true story of how the birth of a baby changes a familyâ€”as this book will change everyone who reads it.
