4.9/5 (18240 ratings)

Description:On Love and Death and Belonging is a fresh, light-hearted, yet profound look at the intersection of the lives of three later-middle-aged people—a group often othered in today’s society and not always included in the lexicon of contemporary novels except as bit players. Fiona, a burned-out nurse, still needing a pay cheque, counting the days to retirement. Brice, a gay man coming to terms with a diagnosis of ALS and the need for care. Adelina, marginalized and living with domestic abuse, her belief in God guides her. The impacts of aging, loneliness, isolation, invisibility, and illness leading to medical assistance in dying unite these three characters as they search for belonging. On Love and Death and Belonging gives voice to the realization that life, by its very design, doesn’t always get easier. Sometimes, it’s just plain hard.Daphne Leonie Wright is a proud Canadian and decades-long Vancouverite who appreciates the spoils of the city where she lives with her husband John. Daphne enjoys leisurely walks, bike rides, swims, and the occasional flat hike. Most often, John can be found up ahead—waiting. As a nurse, Daphne has long been interested in what makes us do the things we do. This interest led her to complete an MA in Liberal Studies.
