Gina DeMillo Wagner will speak about and sign her new book, Forces of Nature: A Memoir of Family, Loss and Finding Home, on Tuesday, May 14th at 6:30pm, at Boulder Bookstore. She will be in conversation with Katherine Sleadd for this special event.
About the Book:
Gina DeMillo Wagner’s brother Alan had a rare genetic disorder that caused him to veer from loving to violent. When Alan died suddenly, Gina was pulled away from the safety of her adult life and thrust back into a family she has been estranged from for nearly ten years.
Forces of Nature follows this rewinding of the past, Gina’s caregiving journey and reckoning with complicated grief, plus Alan’s Christmas-themed funeral, and an investigation into his cause of death. It’s a personal story that asks universal questions: How much of ourselves should we sacrifice to those we love? And, what forces shape our sense of family and home?
