Description
A Mother and Son on Life, Love, and Loss
Though Anderson Cooper has always considered himself close to his mother, his intensely busy career as a journalist for CNN and CBS affords him little time to spend with her. After she suffers a brief but serious illness at the age of ninety-one, they resolve to change their relationship by beginning a yearlong conversation unlike any they have ever had before. The result is a correspondence of surprising honesty and depth in which they discuss their lives, the things that matter to them, and what they still want to learn about each other.
Both a son's love letter to his mother and an unconventional mom's life lessons for her grown son, The Rainbow Comes and Goes offers a rare window into the close relationship of Anderson Cooper and Gloria Vanderbilt and fascinating life stories, including their tragedies and triumphs. In their words their distinctive personalities shine through-Anderson's journalistic outlook on the world is a sharp contrast to his mother's idealism and unwavering optimism.
