"Abigail Thomas's many gifts as a writer and deeply generous person show us what is possible when two brave people examine a reconfigured life--one that conjures the uncanny, spotlights the power of art, and amplifies the meaning and reach of love."

--Stephen King

This is a very quick read. The basis of this memoir is that the husband of the author has a life changing accident. The book is well written and delves into how the author copes with the changes in her life, her husband's injuries, her age and how her three dogs help her to be comforted. If you appreciate the love a dog can bring into your life you will enjoy this book. The author has a way of making mundane routine compelling. After reading this book you will appreciate the people and pets in your life that give you their love.

I received this book in the mail yesterday afternoon. I finished it last night. It is a fast read but don't let that fool you, it is a powerful book.
This is a story of life after a tragedy and the author really makes you feel it. I highly recommend this book!
You will want to run in and hug your husband as never before.

This is the very honest memoir of a woman whose husband suffered brain damage in an accident--about how their marriage endured but changed, how she coped, and, incidentally, how her dogs helped.
