Two friends find themselves confronting life-shattering circumstances: the death of a child by suicide and a diagnosis of a glioblastoma brain cancer. Over the course of one year, these two women embark on a deliberate correspondence to rescue themselves and each other from overwhelming grief. As the months pass, the act of writing and bearing witness to one another transforms each woman’s journey through terrible loss into a courageous affirmation of resilience and of lives well lived.

A self-described "serial New Yorker", Jane Flynn was born in Manhattan and lived there through early childhood and again as a young attorney. She received her BA in Ancient Greek and English from Wellesley College, and her JD from Harvard Law School. She left family, friends and profession behind in 1990 to follow her future husband to Athens, Greece. After learning Greek, she spent the next thirty years raising two sons while navigating the services to support her younger son with autism. She cofounded an autism advocacy nonprofit and later served on the board of the Mediterranean Garden Society. Jane returned to New York in late 2020 following her younger son's death by suicide. She worked in Visitors Services for the Central Park Conservancy for several years, and continues to volunteer in Central Park. Antiphon is her first published work.
