A Guide to Surviving Family Gatherings


How can a holiday be hell?

· You and your mother havent spoken to each other for five years and you've decided to go home for the family reunion this Fourth of July...

· Your lesbian sister is bringing her girlfriend to your wedding and nobody has told Grandma yet...

· You are recently divorced and your children are insisting that spend Christmas with your ex...

· Your father has terminal cancer and the whole family is together for what everybody knows will be the last Thanksgiving...



When Holidays are Hell...! is an upbeat guide for meeting the expectations and challenges of family gatherings. From unresolved conflicts to reconciling differences in lifestyle, Caplan offers keys to unlocking dozens of potentially unpleasant situations.



"...A timely and invaluable contribution to this culture."
