Terms & Conditions: A Memoir

The terms & conditions you grew up with don't have to determine the rest of your life When a 46-year-old hypervigilant anthropologist finds out she has a genetic mutation that means she is at risk of developing the same cancer that killed her father at 48, she must put her grief and anxiety over his death and her emotionally precarious childhood to rest or risk losing her sanity, her husband, and her carefully-ordered life. Terms & Conditions is an experimental memoir in both form and content. This is a memoir in glossary structure, allowing for analytical distance to the emotional impact of Goldmacher's many artifacts and memories, giving the author a new perspective on what they carry from the past to her desired future.
