"What makes a good death? A good daughter? In 2009 with her forties and a harsh wave of austerity on the horizon Marianne Brooker's mother was diagnosed with primary progressive multiple sclerosis. She made a workshop of herself and her surroundings combining creativity and activism in inventive ways. But over time her ability to work to move and to live without pain diminished drastically. Determined to die in her own home on her own terms she stopped eating and drinking in 2019. In Intervals Brooker reckons with heartbreak weaving her first and final memories with a study of doulas living wills and the precarious economics of social hospice and funeral care. Blending memoir polemic and feminist philosophy Brooker joins writers such as Anne Boyer Maggie Nelson Donald Winnicott and Lola Olufemi to raise essential questions about choice and interdependence and ultimately to imagine care otherwise."--
