From the New York Times bestselling author of Bird by Bird, Hallelujah Anyway, and Almost Everything“If there is a doyenne of the parenting memoir, it would be Anne Lamott.”—Time In Some Assembly Required, Anne Lamott enters a new and unexpected chapter in her own life: grandmotherhood. Stunned to learn that her son, Sam, is about to become a father at nineteen, Lamott begins a journal about the first year of her grandson Jax’s life. In careful and often hilarious detail, Lamott and Sam—about whom she first wrote so movingly in Operating Instructions—struggle to balance their changing roles. By turns poignant and funny, honest and touching, Some Assembly Required is the true story of how the birth of a baby changes a family—as this book will change everyone who reads it.

Everyone has a baby story to tell, stories about teething and diaper changing, stories about first words and the funny little spit bubbles that burp and drool out of every baby's mouth. If the baby is yours or if you know the parent or grandparent of said baby, you will, of course, be delighted by such tales, because you love your baby or you love your friends and live through them in their stories.But enjoying these stories when it's a stranger telling them is something else.At the surface, there is nothing special about Anne Lamott's new book, "Some Assembly Required." It is a journal of the first year of her grandson Jax's life. Anne's son, Sam, is nineteen when Jax is born and Anne details Sam's journey with his son and how Anne must force herself to let her son grow up and make decisions on his own.Even though nothing particularly exciting happens to baby Jax that hasn't already happened to billions of babies everywhere, the joy is in the storytelling. Anne Lamott has always been one of my favorite storytellers. She is self-deprecating. She is unabashedly Christian and unabashedly uncouth. Yet even as a Christian, she visits ashrams in San Francisco and mosques in India. She searches for connection to God anywhere and everywhere.She quotes John Muir who "once said that to see the face of God, you do not need to open a book or go to church or temple; you have only to go to Yosemite. And you are a part of the world's beauty. God, and the beauty of God's creation, and you complete the circuit."She often says things that strike my soul in such a way I begin to wonder if we're all connected somehow, if we all share the same soul longings, the same soul fears and joys and if these things are what connect us all in the community of God.She writes in regards to her grandson Jax, "I think about the idea of his having dual citizenship--a child of God and heaven, with a human life here--and how confusing that has always been for me. And what he is in for, because our spiritual and human identities coexist, the way light is both a particle and a wave."The interesting thing in physics about wave-particle duality is that when you are looking for a wave you will find one and when you are hunting for a particle you will find that too. Both coexist together, but you can only see what you are looking for at the time.I love how Anne Lamott makes me think.
