A Memoir of Loss and Consolation
Celebrated author Joanne Limburg's moving account of her brother's suicide. Touching on religion, family, art and science.
The suicide of Joanne Limburg's beloved brother Julian left her shattered. When her mother dies too, Joanne pulls herself from the depths of grief by embarking on a journey of salvage, collecting up those scattered fragments of memory from her childhood. With love, wit and wisdom, she begins piecing together a bright mosaic of a brother that left her behind, and of a family coloured by the conflicting influences of literature, science and religion.
