The final, posthumous memoir of Eleanor Coppola (1936-2024), American documentary filmmaker, writer and artist. Prompted by a rare cancer diagnosis, Coppola confronts her role as matriarch of an accomplished film family and her creative ambitions late in life, returning to the tension between her work as wife and mother and her career as writer and filmmaker, a thread running from Notes: On the Making of Apocalypse Now (1979) to the documentary Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker's Apocalypse (1991) and the features Paris Can Wait (2016) and Love Is Love Is Love (2020). The book covers the last years of her life through periods of creative growth and resilience despite artistic and physical setbacks. Edited by Davia Nelson and Vendela Vida, with an introduction by Sofia Coppola and an afterword by Alice Waters. Published by A24, distributed through MACK.
