Did not finish, too depressing ( ) Anyone who has ever lost someone they loved – and, eventually, if we live long enough, it happens to us all – will find this elegy to the author's late brother to be a heart-achingly accurate portrayal of what it's like to have your best friend die. After reading it, I wanted to send it telepathically to my younger brother, if only to tell him that I had a vision of what life would be like without him... and that I wanted him to know before either one of us departs just how much he means to me. Highly recommended. A thoughtful and sensitive, yet in no way sentimental, probing of the loss and grief occasioned by a brother's death--and though she tells us about his life and death, the writing is firmly rooted in the living present. I found the use of second-person address most effective. Many lovely passages of writing. A very moving memoir and testament to the life and untimely death (at 45 from pancreatic cancer) of author Helen Humphreys's brother, Martin, a concert pianist and composer. This is not an easy read. The sensitive observations of the world after one who is deeply loved has died remind readers of the rawness of their own grief. A painfully beautiful book. näyttää 4/4 ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
