Publisher's Summary:
Part of growing up is realizing that everyone is dragging along baggage behind them. Some deal more successfully than others with that baggage. My memoir is my attempt to make a piece of art, a book, out of the obstacles that I tried to overcome in my early life.
My main obstacle was my mother, a beautiful actress who was not at all loving or maternal to me. Like all good survivors I found substitutes in other women who filled the role of mother in my life. I have written portraits of several of them who were important to me.

Cardinal Days is an engaging story of a girl from a successful family in New York City who grew up in a challenging environment with a demanding
mother. She had a variety of interesting experiences and adventures in several locations. Her two years at school in Switzerland when a young teenager seemed to establish a confidence to cope and she ultimately makes the transition to adulthood with some bumps along the way. It's well written and delightful to read.
Reading Susan Coppock's CARDINAL DAYS is like turning pages of a family album
Reading Susan Coppock's CARDINAL DAYS is like turning pages of a family album. Each snapshot (chapter) focuses on a person, a face, an event--slice of hard life that the author had to endure because of an indifferent mother, who, being an actress, devoted her life to the stage to the expense of her children who were bounced back and forth in the care of housekeepers. The fluid and cathartic style mirrors the author's resilience, endurance,and courage to delve into her private world.
