alongsworth 's review for:
Wave
by Sonali Deraniyagala
I received this book as a belated Christmas gift from my mother yesterday afternoon and finished it by last night, crying the whole way through. An incredibly moving memoir of a woman who lost her two kids, husband, parents and friend in the 2004 tsunami. Her miraculous survival of the event will forever torture her as she figures out how to live without "her life." So powerful. My one criticism, and maybe it's not fair, is that despite how detailed the book is, there's still detail missing about how she rebuilt life outside the emotional challenges.
