This Interim Time

This Interim Time is Oona Frawley's deeply personal memoir that intertwines reflections on the deaths and births that have shaped her life, exploring themes of grief, love, and the complex interplay between loss and gratitude.

How do we live when our loved ones are dying? How do we make sense of the world in their wake? And how do we balance love in the present with memory of the past?

As she witnesses her mother’s descent into dementia and a beloved friend’s cruel battle with cancer, Oona Frawley reconsiders the death of her father in New York decades earlier, the loss of her parents' home in Ireland before she was born, and the births of her own children. Balancing between grief at the passing of those closest to her, and joy at the emergence of new life, Frawley has wrought a stunning meditation on memory, family and the brief windows of life we share with those we love.

Utterly humane, fearlessly honest and always, at its core, hopeful, This Interim Time is a powerful, moving work at once intensely personal and entirely universal.
