GenX = Generation Divorce with author Priscilla Gilman

Pop Culture Preservation Society

Following our Kramer vs. Kramer episode, we take an even deeper dive with someone who was obsessed with the movie at just ten years old: Priscilla Gilman, author of The Critic's Daughter, a memoir that dissects her experience of her parents' divorce, will join us to give her take on the movie and why it resonated so hard with her at such a young age. Her story is uniquely hers but statistics show that at least half of you will find it shockingly familiar. The first children of divorce are in their forties and fifties now and it's become clear that we Gen Xers were the canaries in the coal mine. Whether it was you, your friends, or your neighbors, divorce touched us all.
