""Julie Fingersh''s Stay is so rich, wise, funny, and beautifully written. It''s hard to put down once you start."" --Anne Lamott " Stay is profound, funny, and masterfully told. It''s a beautiful memoir centered on the power of love--the joys of love, the pain of love, the responsibility of love. I read it in a single day. I can''t stop thinking about it. I loved it." --Gretchen Rubin, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Happiness Project series "Julie Fingersh''s invaluable and highly readable memoir is asking us who we thought we were, how that squares with who we''ve become and what we might want to do about it. A question every woman I know is asking right about now." --Kelly Corrigan, four-time New York Times bestselling author of The Middle Place and host of PBS'' "Tell Me More with Kelly Corrigan" "A rare and compelling narrative about what it means to have a struggling child who is an almost grown-up; a balm for those whose children are on the cusp. Immersive, warm, real--like having a cup of coffee with an intimate friend. I loved the writing." --Zibby Owens, "NYC''s Most Powerful Book-fluencer" (Vulture), founder of Zibby Media, author of USA Today bestselling Blank, and host of Moms Don''t Have Time to Read Podcast "Julie Fingersh writes with a brilliant mind and a loving heart. Stay is a book of remarkable emotional depth and wisdom for anyone in search of moving past their pain and making the most of their one precious life." --Dr. Edith Eva Eger, New York Times bestselling author of The Gift, The Choice, and featured guest on Oprah''s Super Soul Sunday " Stay is a work of art and a treasure. The journey through its pages is an exhibit of integrity, vulnerability, talent, and raw humanity. You will be enthralled." --Harville Hendrix, PhD, New York Times bestselling author of Getting the Love You Want: A Guide for Couples and How to Talk with Anyone About Anything "Lyrical, wise, freewheeling, both heartbreaking and laugh out loud funny, Stay is proof of the possibility that awaits us all to claim our creative lives, no matter what stage of life we are in." --Laura Zinn Fromm, founder of Sweet Lab Writing Workshops and author of Sweet Survival "Luminous, irreverent, captivating...With a voice you''ll fall in love with like a new best friend, Stay is a love letter to all of us mid-lifers searching for a new roadmap of joy and meaning. It''s also for us mothers, daughters, and sisters who want to love fiercely without losing ourselves." --Laura Munson, New York Times, USA Today, and international bestselling author of This is Not the Story You Think It Is "Stay is a deeply personal book that will touch readers and bring greater understanding to raising young adults in today''s world of depression and anxiety. It''s also an inspiring story for empty nesters about life after kids. I could not put it down." --Lisa Heffernan, co-founder of Grown and Flown, the #1 site number one site for parents of teens and college students and New York Times bestselling author "In this well-written memoir, Fingersh shares how it feels to live through a mentally ill brother''s death at 26 and a daughter''s ulcerative colitis diagnosis.... Fingersh also grapples with feelings of inadequacy over being a full-time mom, but her feelings about Danny are the heart of her account. Fingersh''s story should help readers dealing with family secrets and mental and physical health issues feel less alone." -- Booklist "At 50, an aspiring writer confronts painful challenges in her past and present. Fingersh''s memoir weaves together three topics--memories of her younger brother''s mental illness and death at 26, her bitter sense of failure and struggle to reconnect with her lost promise, and the serious health problems that emerge for her 18-year-old daughter during her freshman year of college.... Fortunately, it all makes sense in the end, thanks to revelations found in EMDR therapy. [T]he ending is uplifting." -- Kirkus Reviews

Stay: A Story of Family, Love & Other Traumas opens in the spring of 2016, days before Julie Fingersh's fiftieth birthday as she chugs up a Northern California trail with her running partner Lucy, struggling to confess the hideous truth. She is plagued with feelings of envy toward her own daughter, eighteen-year-old Jesse, whose life and future are headed for the stars. Earlier that day, Jesse had burst into the kitchen to announce that she'd been the only campaign intern selected to help staff Hillary Clinton's Bay Area visit. Julie's initial swell of pride was swept away by a surge of shame-filled envy. Suddenly she was overcome by her own stalled future, that had been set in motion by her family's doomed odyssey to save her brother from his descent into mental illness thirty years earlier. The hidden trauma of the past had come home to roost. Unfolding over the course of five decades, Stay's tells the tale of Julie's effort to recover her own buried dreams--only for her daughter's life to be derailed by the presentation of a debilitating chronic medical illness during her first week of college. The book's backstory follows the devastating arc of Danny's life, as he transformed from Julie's sunny, funny childhood playmate into a haunted stranger, setting in motion a secret, fourteen-year family crisis that, as sister and daughter, recast her identity and future. A story that gives insight and hope at a time when every sector of our society is grappling with the ripple effect of mental illness, the lonely plight of chronic medical illness, and the often invisible cost of our past, Stay is captivating journey into the complex layers of modern life: mystical, messy, funny, and sometimes heart wrenching. It's a story for everyone who is on a search for happiness and meaning. Above all, Stay is about the universal human quest to embrace the oldest, most important search of all: how to rise to the possibility of our own lives., "Julie Fingersh's Stay is so rich, wise, funny, and beautifully written. It's hard to put down once you start." -- Anne Lamott, #1 New York Times bestselling author Named one of Zibby Owens's Most Anticipated Books of Fall 2024 "Fingersh's story should help readers dealing with family secrets and mental and physical health issues feel less alone." --Booklist Called "Rich, wise, funny, and beautifully written" by #1 New York Times bestselling author Anne Lamott, Stay : A Story of Family, Love, and Other Traumas is a riveting debut that captures the joyous and painful complexity of family love and loyalty, the cost of family secrets, and the quest to help the people we love most without losing our own way. It's also a rare window into two of the biggest epidemics gripping society today: mental illness and chronic illness and the ways in which they affect relationships, personal identity, and the blueprint of our lives. Told through the eyes of the author as both a young sibling and a mid-life parent, Julie Fingersh seamlessly weaves together present and past, unlocking the puzzle of her early adulthood with her struggling brother from the vantage point of a mid-life parent on the verge of an empty nest and her next chapter, just as her college-bound daughter's life suddenly careens off track. Sparkling with warmth, wit, and lyrical prose, Fingersh provides insight and sustenance for everyone wrestling with mid-life's ghosts, parenting adult children, and the twin pillagers of fear and the inner critic. Above all, Stay is for readers who want to think, feel, laugh, cry, and perhaps see their own life's trajectory and path forward with new eyes.
