Virginia Pounds
Brown’s "little" book is large in love and courage. Beneath
the almost off-hand telling of her mother’s last years lies the
reality of what it means to grow old. In spite of Dylan Thomas’s
admonition to "not go gentle," Virginia Brown, with the loving
heart of a loving, compassionate daughter, certainly guided her mother
gently into "that good night." Mother and Me is well
told, moving and funny; I found myself laughing just after wiping away a
tear.
-Anne Nall Stallworth, author of Go,
Go Said the Bird
