Beavers use their teeth to cut down trees. Father talking to daughter. " From this husband-father-scientist-physician, we experience the relationship, and learn what life is as he talks to her in high-level talk. "Life is just carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen..." Intimacy and objectivity. That day, she was 14; Kirsten, her Father, Mother and three younger sisters were in the car. They were driving home from what seemed like an ordinary family vacation when there was a crash. Ten years later, unexpected changes in location causes the small circle that is her family to tighten as Kirsten grows into her own sense of self. Like Rilke, she loves and mourns simultaneously. Kirsten Schowalter, like her younger sisters, entered the car as a teenager, along with her mother--after the crash, she comes out immersed and detached. A writer. Older with the story, echoing Rilke still, delivering her all with younger descending joy. This terrible story, now in your hands, in all of its terrible beauty. "Kirsten is a beautiful writer. She put me RIGHT THERE in the story and kept my attention." "It's an awesome book." "Hauntingly beautiful." "From the first page, I couldn't stop." "A real page-turner." "It is amazing! She is so courageous to share her thoughts, feelings, questions and all she has learned. I am so impressed with her metaphors and observations that are so beautifully communicated. She speaks of discovering such maturity and positive mental health ways of living into this world and oneself. Through the book she helps readers to discover what they need to through their journey of grief and growing into oneself."
