Candd and empathc, Cryay depcts ostacles of the ody, from mscarrage to cancer. Along the way, a trumph of the soul emerges. -- Jessca Zucker, author of I Had a Mscarrage: A Memor, a Movement Crybaby is a story of perseverance, of understanding, of showing up--for oneself and for one another. I felt my own body move with the turn of a page. -- Miah Jeffra, author of The Violence Almanac Crybaby is a visceral roller coaster of love, unexpected health challenges (that would have broken most women), and a rocky road to motherhood. Klein's resilience and words captivated me. -- Nefertiti Austin, author of Motherhood So White: A Memoir of Race, Gender, and Parenting in America Crybaby is a wild ride through waves of lovehood, sickhood, motherhood, and humanhood. -- Susan Straight, author of In the Country of Women A beautiful and rare act of storytelling that will make you feel less alone, and will make you laugh. A gorgeous book! -- Jen Pastiloff, author of On Being Human Cheryl E. Klein's superpower is knowing herself. Reading Crybaby felt like hanging out with a very good friend. -- Andrea Askowitz, author of My Miserable, Lonely, Lesbian Pregnancy I'm grateful to Cheryl Klein for being real about all the messy emotions tied to the strange and powerful desire for a child, and for bringing us on this tightly written, unsparingly honest ride. I found myself rooting wildly for her--and for everyone daring to take on such a common human experience from their most uncommon queer lives. -- Michelle Tea, author of Knocking Myself Up: A Memoir of My (In)Fertility In this fiercely honest, sharply observed memoir diving into the tumult of relationships, living with cancer, infertility, longing, loss, and complicated hope, Cheryl E.
