Dear James - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

My brother is dead, and everything is worse now.

There is no beautiful way to say it. No lesson that makes losing someone you love worth it. No version of grief that neatly ends with closure.

Dear James is an intimate reflection on the loss of a younger brother and the strange, painful ways love continues after death.

Through memories of rainy childhood days, frog hunting, inside jokes, ordinary conversations, and the moments that suddenly mean everything once someone is gone, Alexis Hunter writes to—and about—the brother she can no longer call.

Raw, tender, angry, and unexpectedly funny, Dear James explores the parts of grief that are difficult to explain: forgetting for half a second that someone is gone, feeling guilty for laughing again, watching the rest of the world continue as if nothing happened, and realizing that healing does not have to mean leaving someone behind.

This is not a book about finding a reason for loss.

It is about remembering.

About loving someone who is no longer here.

And about discovering that sometimes the people we lose remain with us in the smallest places—in a joke, a memory, a frog after a storm, or every time it rains.
