E.A. Hanks
Driving her trusty minivan “Minnie,” E.A. Hanks retraces the route of a memorable road trip she once took with her mother, seeking to understand the complex woman who shaped her life. Along the way, as she follows her mother’s diaries and her own recollections of the route, she begins to uncover secrets—some unexpectedly wonderful, and others darker and more violent than she ever imagined—that bring more questions than answers.
From the quiet expanses of White Sands National Park to the bustling streets of New Orleans, and the Texas-Mexico border to the swamps of the Florida panhandle, she interacts with the amazing breadth and diversity of the people that call these places home. Reckoning with the past, the present, her memories, and herself, Hanks brings us along a poignant journey, revealing how the stories tied to the places we come from shape the narratives of who we are.©2025 E.A. Hanks (P)2025 Simon & Schuster Audio

"The 10" is her most personal work yet: a memoir that explores the complicated, sometimes painful relationship with her mother. From the opening chapters, you know it’s going to be the kind of book that stays with you—not just because of the story it tells, but because of the fearless way Hanks tells it.
(And as a New Orleanian who often hates the way interlopers write about our city, I'm happy to say that Hanks GETS the city. We'd welcome her with a sazerac anytime. She doesn't just write about New Orleans – she listens to it)
E.A. Hanks’s writing never flinches—always fresh, vulnerable, and deeply honest

I may come back to this book after taking a break, and perhaps I'll realize Ive been too harsh. After all, I haven't even finished it, right? Who knows, maybe it's a gem and I'm just too impatient....
