Lindsay Bartels -- "Imogen in Waiting," with Alle Mudrick
Lindsay Bartels will speak about and sign her new book, "Imogen in Waiting," at Boulder Bookstore, in conversation with Alle Mudrick.
Lindsay Bartels will speak about and sign her new book, Imogen in Waiting: A Memoir of Modern Reproduction, on Wednesday, July 15th at 6:30pm, at Boulder Bookstore. She will be in conversation with Alle Mudrick for this special event.
About the Book:
When twenty-six-year-old Lindsay Bartels is diagnosed with breast cancer, she also learns she is a carrier of the BRCA1 gene. To not pass on the cancer-causing gene, Lindsay and her husband undergo IVF, only to find themselves with three viable embryos: two healthy males and one female—with BRCA1.
Imogen in Waiting is the story of a mother grappling with an impossible decision—whether or not to bring a daughter just like her into being—while also asking some of life’s biggest questions: What makes for a life worth living? How do we live with our decisions? How do we navigate the unknown? Told to her female embryo, Imogen, Lindsay’s story is both human and God-like, about both agency and surrender, capacity and limitations—and how life is always happening in the middle of it all.
