What do women talk abut when they know they don't have forever? They talk about what they've always talked abouotm only they go deeper with outrageous humor they try to ease the pain. Intimate and uncensored sharing, the kind of connection women prize, forms the core of this celebrated work about the grit and power of female friends. Ann and Ruth have always talked as only great friends can. Then Ruth is diagnosed with cancer, and everything changes; the women begin to share something more profound than either of them might have predicted.
