creo que ejemplifica perfectamente lo que es pasar por un duelo, aunque en momentos se me hizo pesado con la crónica de la enfermedad de su hija (muchos datos médicos)

I wasn’t to sure what to expect with this. I knew it was Didion’s most well known work and felt like it was a good place to start. I don’t always love stream of consciousness writing, and that certainly applied here. Some parts I found really moving, others I felt like she was circling over the same thought. I interpreted that partially as the chronic and unrelenting grief she was experiencing. Overall I thought the writing was great but felt like it could have gone deeper and kinda missed the mark for me!

This is more of a journal/stream of thought reflection, so I actually hate the idea of putting a star rating on it - I’ll say 4. It’s a beautiful tribute to her husband and a raw insight into someone’s own grief and love.
