Soon after her diagnosis of pancreatic cancer, Mary Ann, and her son, author Will Schwalbe, began to share and discuss a variety of books that had made an impact on their lives . . . 

The inspiring story of a son and his dying mother, who form a 'book club' that brings them together as her life comes to a close, The End of Your Life Book Club is a profoundly moving testament to the power of love between a child and parent, and the power of reading in our lives.

“Will Schwalbe’s brave and soulful elegy to his remarkable mother, his recollection of their sparklingly literate conversations, is a timely reminder that one exceptional person, or one exceptional book, can be a torch in the darkness." -- J.R. Moehringer, journalist and author of The Tender Bar, and Sutton
