Blue Nights by Joan Didion 188 pages
Losing a child is never easy but not long after her husbands unexpected death, Joan Didion's daughter suffered a health calamity that put her in a coma and ultimately led to her death 18 months later. I read her early book The Year of Magical Thinking which focused on the year after her husband John Dunne's death and now this volume that deals with the memory of her daughter. Neither is uplifting but both are beautiful tributes to their subjects.
