In contemporary life, we are more often met with red tape and to-do lists. This is exactly what happened to Geraldine Brooks when her partner of more than three decades, Tony Horwitz - just sixty years old - collapsed and died. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAfter spending their early years together in conflict zones as foreign correspondents, Geraldine and Tony settled down to raise two boys on Martha's Vineyard. But all of this ended abruptly when, on Memorial Day 2019, Geraldine received the phone call we all dread. The demands were immediate and many. Without space to grieve, the sudden loss became a yawning gulf. Three years later, she flew to a remote island off the coast of Australia to finally give herself time to mourn. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA spare and profoundly moving memoir that joins the classics of the genre, \u003ci\u003eMemorial Days \u003c\/i\u003eis a portrait of a larger-than-life man and a timeless love between souls that exquisitely captures the joy, agony, and mystery of life.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGeraldine Brooks\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of six novels, including \u003ci\u003eHorse\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003ePeople of the Book\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eYear of Wonders\u003c\/i\u003e, and the Pulitzer Prize-winning \u003ci\u003eMarch\u003c\/i\u003e.
