Written in two parts, Between Two Days recounts two days in the life of a mother. As we trace the events of each day, we journey through the life that was lived between them. Between Two Days was written as a way to remember and immortalize the author’s late mother beyond the traditions of a headstone. What was my mother like as a child? became one of the many questions Rory Lance tried to explore as he faced her final days. Using the many stories he was told throughout his life, he wove together a tale that presents a child he never knew as the single most important influence of his life. Between Two Days gives us a detailed look at how childhood and adulthood are profoundly blended together. Rory Lance felt that the best way to honor his late mother was through the art of storytelling and that with every turn of the page his mother will live again in the mind and hopefully heart of the reader.
