Dine and Discuss: "American Mother"

American Mother, by Colum McCann and Diane Foley is the powerful and heart-breaking story of journalist Jim Foley and his imprisonment and ultimate death by ISIS. Diane Foley, Jim’s mother, narrates the story beginning with her meeting with her son’s killer. We learn of Jim’s early years, the efforts of his family to secure his release, the challenges of working with the government, the family’s grief, and their search for peace.

American Mother has been described as “a thriller, a biography, a mystery, a memoir, and a literary examination of grace.
