Roz Chast’s book Can’t We Talk About Something More Pleasant chronicles her experiences as a daughter and caregiver for her aging parents. Her drawings and text are both funny and heart-breaking. Known for her cartoons in the New Yorker, Chast touches on the dilemma of having a difficult mother and a passive father, and their family relationship as both parents age, decline and approach death.
