NO SON OF MINE A Memoir

Christopher P. Brown performs this intimate memoir of a son's fraught relationship with his mother after she discovers he's gay. During the first year of the Covid pandemic, Corcoran's mother dies, leaving him and his two sisters to handle her affairs. From there, Corcoran takes listeners back through their complex relationship, sharing how his mother's homophobia has followed him his entire life. Brown beautifully performs both the tense and heartfelt moments between Corcoran and his mother, whom, despite everything, he still loves. Delivering the dialogue, Brown deftly handles the West Virginia accents of Corcoran's family and makes each character unique. K.D.W. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine [Published: AUGUST 2024]
