The Gravitational Pull of Bernice Trimble
About this book
Iris Trimble is trying to hold it all together. She may very well fly off the face of the earth if she doesn't hang on to the kitchen counter. At least that's how she feels after her mother, Bernice, a lively, recently widowed fifty-nine-year-old breaks the news that she has Alzheimer's. In an effort to cope with the stress, Iris makes her mother's famous Everything That Is Bad For You Casserole, a childhood favourite. Her siblings, on the other hand, are on opposite sides of the spectrum: Sarah, the eldest, irately demands a second opinion, while Peter, the youngest, seems completely unfazed. As for Bernice, she's still as vivacious as ever, always up for a good laugh, and, most of all, ready to finally put herself first.

I
can’t
imagine
her
in
heaven
because
I
don’t
know
what
that
is.
For
me,
Heaven
is
just
a
really
bad
name
for
a
little
girl.
I
guess
I
will
imagine
her
as
one
of
those
particles
in
the
enormous
expanse
of
the
universe.
Particles
spinning
around
more
particles
spinning
around
even
more
particles
in
an
endless,
complicated
dance
held
in
gravity’s
loving
embrace.
I
don’t
know
how
to
say
gravity
in
French,
but
what
I
do
know
is
that
gravity
is
a
good
hugger—it
keeps
you
from
flying
off
the
earth
and
hurtling
through
space.
It
holds
you
for
a
brief,
impermanent
moment
and
then
pats
you
on
the
back
and
let’s
you
go.
And
that
is
that. . .
