While growing up in Brooklyn, Abby November's grandmother, Bubbe, always told her, You'll miss me when I'm a candle. Soon, it became evident that Bubbe's uncanny wit was genetic as November transformed into a kid who loved creating amusing repartees. In a collection of personal essays, prose, poetry, and recipes, November shares insight into her life experiences and relationships while being raised in a multi-generational home in Brooklyn, New York, with her parental grandparents, Bubbe and Zayde, whose zest for life, liverwurst sandwiches, an egg cream at Crazy Joe's candy shop, and sitting on the stoop naming constellations became an integral part of November's upbringing. While November's writings detail how she eventually left to attend an internship program in Boston, married and had two children, earned three degrees, and became a stand-up comedian, they also shine a light on how the wisdom of her elder family members became a north star for her to follow through her adult life. Tales of a Bubbe is a collection of personal essays, prose, poetry, and recipes shared from the heart and mind of a woman reflecting on love, laughter, and wonderful memories.
