Description
Maggie O'Farrell's memoir is a deeply personal account of her life, woven from seventeen encounters with death and near-death experiences. From a childhood illness that left her bedridden for a year to an ongoing struggle to protect her daughter from vulnerability, these stories stitch together the fabric of her entire life. With taut prose that conveys the perils running just beneath the surface, O'Farrell illuminates the preciousness, beauty and mysteries of life. Her writing is restrained yet electrifying, capturing the fragility and beauty of human existence.
