In the Unlikely Event of a Water Landing: A Geography of Grief

Christopher Noël

4.9/5 (23167 ratings)

Description:"A gifted novelist, Noel writes his heart out in this book. Better than any book familiar to this reader, [this one] captures the tormented psychological circling, the ceremony of mourning and altar-building that mark those left behind. That Noel succeeds so well is a tribute to his bristling intelligence, his talent for deft description, his willingness to open every millimeter of his survival strategy since Brigid's death."-The Philadelphia Inquirer"Noel says the toughest, most poignant things there are to say and with decided clarity, even humor, confirms the power of the human spirit to survive. His narrative of loss and the uncanny persistence of memory is beautiful and disturbing."-Howard Norman, author of "The Bird Artist""Noel writes very well indeed. His book is an honest one, and therefore painful."-Peter Matthiessen, author of "The Snow Leopard""Noel is absolutely unflinching. Idiosyncratic details like the tiny shard of windshield glass that he discovers in Brigid's datebook bring her back to life, and small private moments flawlessly rendered make his grief real. The soul needs stories like this. It positively craves them."-Chris Bohjalian, author of "Before You Know Kindness" and "Midwives""In the Unlikely Event is a page-turner, polished, skillful. Within a few pages or even paragraphs, Noel often moves back and forth between decades. In one breath he's chronicling his relationship with Brigid; in another, he reads from a journal kept by his mother during his childhood, weaving it all together to try to heal. Indeed, a perfect stranger could cry."-The Los Angeles TimesWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
