Om denne bog
In 1960, six years before Marty Ross-Dolen was born, her maternal grandparents were killed in an airline disaster involving the collision of two commercial jets over New York City. They were traveling from Columbus, Ohio, to seek placement for their family''s iconic magazine, Highlights for Children, on the newsstands. Their daughter - Marty''s mother - was fourteen years old at the time. This genre-bending memoir tells Marty''s story of being raised by a mother in protracted mourning. The fragmented narrative explores Marty''s journey, from personal ways of coping as a child to the evolution of a mother-daughter relationship that matured over time. It is also about her longing to know her maternal grandmother, and through saved letters and photographs from her grandmother''s life, she enters a fantastical relationship that serves to replace one that otherwise could never exist. Ultimately it is about the discovery of truth, in unearthing the story of her grandparents'' deaths and her mother''s acute loss, in freeing her grandmother''s image from the weight of a tragic death, and in Marty''s own delivery from darkness. Beyond that, it is about universal life choices, the ways human beings unknowingly determine their destinies, and the healing powers of truth and love.
