* A young woman's memoir of a year of grieving after her mother died, written with anger, insight, wisdom and grace.Meghan O'Rourke was thirtytwo when her mother died of cancer on Christmas Day, 2008. As a writer, even in the depths of her grief, she was fascinated by what she observed of herself in the the rage she felt, not only at what had happened to her mother, but also at the inability of people to acknowledge her pain; her sense that the meaning of her life had changed fundamentally with the loss of a parent; the way that the reassuringly familiar often became somehow completely new and strange. The Long Goodbye interleaves personal recollections of her muchloved mother with an examination of what it means to grieve in a society which no longer has the rituals or even, most of the time, the desire to engage with grief, to understand it, and to let it do both its worst and its best.
