Finding Time to Grieve
What we’re reading: “Memorial Days,” by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Geraldine Brooks. A spare tale of marriage and mourning, Brooks’s memoir explores the trauma of her husband’s sudden death at age 60 (he was Tony Horowitz, also a renowned literary figure), and the all-encompassing loss she experienced after 35 years of marriage. The chapters alternate between the immediate, frenzied aftermath of Horowitz’s death, and three years hence, when Brooks decamps to a remote corner of her native Australia to finally find the time, and space, to fully grieve. Read the Wall Street Journal’s review of this moving narrative of sorrow and remembrance.
