59K0

This book is an unconventional memoir about how we, as the remaining people, deal with our grief, grieve and accept our loss, and move on with our lives after someone we love most dies. Author Amy Lin records the year after her husband's unexpected death from a first-person perspective. She was only 31 when her husband, Curtis, died suddenly during a half-marathon. The two were still immersed in the joy of getting married and preparing for a future together, but everything suddenly fell apart. Through the clips of meeting, falling in, and losing Curtis, we see the deep love between the two when they lived together, and feel the heaviness and pain that follows when their soul mate dies. The intertwining between the present and memories not only depicts the extremely real love and loss, but also shows the fragility of human nature, so that when you finish reading the last page, the heartbreaking emotional power will still echo in your heart.
