Delia Ephron: Sister Mother Husband Dog
Few writers compare to Delia Ephron in creative range and sparkling humor. Her work encompasses the big screen (You've Got Mail and Michael), the stage (Love, Loss, and What I Wore), and the page (The Lion is In and How to Eat Like a Child, among others). Her latest book is Sister Mother Husband Dog: Etc., a collection of stories and essays that stretches from her tumultuous twenties, when she was just starting out as a writer, to a touching, previously unreleased remembrance of her older sister and longtime collaborator, Nora Ephron, who passed away last year. Ephron brings her sharp, sweet, and spirited perspective to a conversation on her prodigious career as one of America's funniest women.
Ephron is joined in conversation by Chicago Tribune advice columnist Amy Dickinson.
