Description
A poignant and intense story unfolds in Austin Duffy's Ten Days. When Wolf's recently-estranged wife Miriam dies from cancer, their entire world is turned upside down.
As they travel to New York to scatter her ashes in the Hudson River, Wolf and his daughter Ruth connect with Miriam's conservative Jewish family, who are opposed to her burial choice. Battling this opposition, Wolf also grapples with his own desire to make amends before it's too late.
This tenderly written novel explores the complicated love between a father and daughter, as well as the bonds of marriage and older family ties, delving deep into themes of time, grief, and memory.
