When his difficult mother is diagnosed with ALS, a sharpwitted yet sensitive artist reluctantly returns to his New Hampshire hometown and all the ghosts he left behind.As it turns out, you can go home again. But sometimes, you really, really dont want to . . .Home, for Noah York, is Oakland, New Hampshire, the sleepy little town where Noahs mother, Virginia, had a psychotic breakdown and Noah got beaten to a pulp as a teenager. Then there were the good timesand Noahs not sure which ones are more painful to recall.Now thirtyseven and eking out a living as an artist in Providence, Rhode Island, Noah looks much the sameand swears just as colorfullyas he did in high school. Virginia has become a wildly successful poet who made him the subject of her most famous poem, The Lost Soul, a label Noah will never live down. And J.D., the one who got awaybecause Noah stupidly drove him awayis in a loving marriage with a successful, attractive man whom Noah despises wholeheartedly.Is it any surprise that Noah wishes he could ignore his mothers summons to come visit?But Virginia has shattering news to deliver, and a request he cant refuse. Soon, Noah will track down the sister and extended family he never knew existed, try to keep his kleptomaniac cousin out of jail, feud with a belligerent neighbor, confront J.D.s jealous husbandand face J.D. himself, the ache from Noahs past that never fades. . . . All the while, contending with his brilliant, unpredictable mother.Bittersweet, hilarious, and moving, and as unapologetically candid and unforgettable as Noah himself, The Language of Love and Loss is a story about growing older, getting lostand finding your way back to the only truths that really matter.
