Description

A USA Today Bestseller Starred reviews from Kirkus, Booklist, and Library Journal Best Book of 2024 Pick by Esquire, ELLE, SheReads, and Kirkus A 2024 NPR “Book We Love” Pick A March 2024 Book of the Month Selection An Apple Books Best Book of March Finalist for the 2024 Hilary Weston Writers' Trust Prize for Nonfiction A Great Group Reads of 2024 from the Women’s National Book Association Here After is a poetic, raw depiction of an unlikely love followed by a dizzying loss. A stunning, taut memoir from debut Canadian author Amy Lin that will resonate deeply with anyone who has been in grief’s grasp. When he dies, I fall out of time. Amy Lin never expected to find a love like the one she shares with her husband, Kurtis, a gifted young architect who pulls her toward joy, adventure, and greater self-acceptance. On a sweltering August morning, only a few months shy of the newlyweds’ move to Vancouver, thirty-two-year-old Kurtis heads out to run a half-marathon with Amy’s family. It is the last time she sees her husband alive. What follows is a rich and unflinchingly honest account of her life with Kurtis and the vortex created by his death. Here After is an intimate story of deep love followed by dizzying loss; a memoir so finely etched that its power will remain with you long after the final page. Read more

    • Honest. Breathtaking.
If you have ever found love and acceptance beyond your wildest expectations, and then tried to stagger onward without it, this book might be for you. Loss leaves us blind afterwards to the basic familiarity of existence. There is a surrealness that makes explanations feel like a Dali painting. Despite thousands of years of human progress, grief remains an experience so misty that we have yet to build proper lighthouses for travelers there. Which is what makes this book so luminous: from deep within its hazy recesses, Amy Lin has illuminated the landscape of loss. This book casts a flashlight over the invisible sculpture of grief, outlines its bends and curves, its sharp points, so that others can say, ah, THERE, I see it now. I read this book in one sitting. Afterwards I felt bandaged in places I hadn't known still bled. If you are a widow feeling unseen, or a support person struggling to comprehend the experience, this book might be for you. This book is about seeing things we all hope no one ever has to glimpse. Admitting they exist. Continuing anyway. It is heartbreaking and beautiful and true. ... show more

    • A searing memoir of heartbreak and loss
Amy Lin has given us a raw and up close look at the unending grief and pain she felt after the unexpected and unexplained death of her husband one day in the early part of the pandemic, when they were both in their thirties. I applaud Lin's honesty and am in awe of her poetic ability to bring us along with her and Kurtis during their relationship and in the aftermath of his death. For bystanders to grief, Lin reminds us that grief is not linear nor does it adhere - at all - the mythical "five stages." Rather it is ugly, ceaseless and irrational. Thank you to Zibby Books and NetGalley for the ARC. ... show more

    • A well written book
I felt like this book read like fiction . had to keep reminding myself it's an actual memoir I love the style of the writing and this is unlike any book I've ever read. It is written in the first person present tense. I love that. It works for this story.

    • Best book
This book was fearless and empowering. Its honesty about the grieving process is unusual and affirming. I've never read a book before that so accurately described the depth of emotions that grief can entail.

    • Just didn't enjoy the format.
This book was just ok. I just hated the format. The way she shared her love story with her husband and at the same time wove her feelings of grief were a story well told. Just really couldn't get into the format. Quick read.

    • Heartwarming, profound and heartbreaking.
This debut about loss is extremely heartwarming, profound and heartbreaking. Amy’s memoir about loosing her husband Kurtis shows us her journey of their love, loss and trying to move forward. Thank you Zibby books for this memoir.

    • A powerful read.
How beautiful this book and this love. I could have read it in one sitting because it had me captivated but I wanted to absorb small bites at a time. The format allowed me to do just that. Amy’s story is both gut wrenching and powerful in her presentation of death, grief and living.

    • riveting read
The story is incredible and the writing is astonishing. I’m very grateful to read such a gorgeously rendered account of the realities of grief. I learned from this book and feel companionship in the struggle with darkness and glimpses of light.
