At the heart of 'American Widow' is the notion of Sept. 11 as a personal, rather than a national or political, tragedy, which, this achingly tender work reminds us, is exactly what it was.' LA TimesWant to honor those who passed during 911? Turn off the stupid documentary glorifying all of those images we've seen over and over, and read this sincere account of how that fateful day effected one person that represents all of us. Aint It Cool News[A] raw, occasionally maddening, bracing graphic memoir Unbearably moving. The New York Times Book ReviewReading it, you feel that Torres could be your friend or neighbor; she makes an epic tragedy intimate. NewsdayOn September 10, 2001, Eddie Torres started his dream job at Cantor Fitzgerald in the North Tower of the World Trade Center. The next morning, he said goodbye to his 7monthspregnant wife, Alissa, and headed out the door.In an instant, Alissas world was thrown into chaos. Forced to deal with unimaginable challenges, Alissa suddenly found herself cast into the role of 9/11 widow, tossed into a storm of bureaucracy, politics, patriotism, mourning, consolation, and, soon enough, motherhood.Beautifully and thoughtfully illustrated, American Widow is the affecting account of one womans journey through shock, pain, birth, and rebirth in the aftermath of a great tragedy. It is also the story of a young couples love affair: how a Colombian immigrant and a strongminded New Yorker met, fell in love, and struggled to fulfill their dreams. Above all, American Widow is a tribute to the resilience of the human heart and the very personal story of how one woman endured a very public tragedy.
