The Bright Hour: A Memoir of Living and Dying
by Nina Riggs
I've been going through a memoir spell for the past year or so, and this book has been on my list since I read When Breath Becomes Air. It's a haunting, beautiful memoir of a woman's love and life, and how she grapples with her terminal diagnosis during and after her mother's own passing. This book makes you pause and savor the everyday moments of life, and reflect on your choices and regrets as an individual. I cried, I laughed, and I found myself reflected in Nina's words.It's a wonderful memoir of a woman's living and dying, and it's a rare insight into how to come to terms with the end when your life is only supposed to start beginning.
