Description
Falling Out of Time by David Grossman is a genre-defying drama that explores the complexities of grief and bereavement. A man embarks on a journey to find his lost son, accompanied by a group of townsfolk who share their own stories of loss.
As they walk together, the characters raise questions about the nature of death and whether it can be overcome through intensity of speech or memory. Grossman's answer is a powerful exploration of solace and hope in the face of loss.
The result is a moving portrayal of communal act of breaching death's hermetic separateness, where loss becomes a life force of its own. This book offers a unique reading experience that will resonate with anyone who has known grief.
