520 2  "Poignant, touching, and lively, this memoir of a woman 
       who loses her mother and creates a new life for herself in
       Paris will speak to anyone who has lost a parent or 
       reinvented themselves. Lisa Anselmo wrapped her entire 
       life around her mother, a strong woman who was a defining 
       force in her daughter's life--maybe too defining. When her
       mother dies from breast cancer, Lisa realizes she hadn't 
       built a life of her own, and struggles to find her 
       purpose. Who is she without her mother--and her mother's 
       expectations? Desperate for answers, she reaches for a 
       lifeline in the form of an apartment in Paris, refusing to
       play it safe for the first time. What starts out as a 
       lurching act of survival sets Lisa on a course that 
       reshapes her life in ways she never could have imagined. 
       But how can you imagine a life bigger than anything you've
       ever known? In the vein of Eat, Pray, Love and Wild, My 
       (Part-time) Paris Life a story is for anyone who's ever 
       felt lost or hopeless, but still holds out hope of 
       something more. This candid memoir explores one woman's 
       search for peace and meaning, and how the ups and downs of
       expat life in Paris taught her to let go of fear, find 
       self-worth, and create real, lasting happiness"--
