Description
Yiyun Li's Must I Go is a deeply moving and expansive novel that explores lives lived, losses accumulated, and the complexities of perception. Through an unconventional epistolary format, Lilia Liska engages in a one-way correspondence with Roland Bouley, whose diary she becomes increasingly obsessed with.
As Lilia annotates the diary with her own version of events, she reveals surprising secrets about her past and returns to her daughter Lucy, who took her own life at 27. With exquisite subtlety and insight, Li navigates the twin poles of grief and resilience, loss and rebirth that define a human heart.
This is ultimately a novel about life, lived on its own terms, with all its messy glory. A powerful exploration of mortality, identity, and the power of storytelling, Must I Go is a deeply moving read.
