For readers who found comfort in Joan Didion's The Year of Magical Thinking, a 9/11 widow's memoir of rediscovering joy and finding love again after the violent loss of her husband.
One sunny Tuesday morning, Maryellen Donovan's beloved husband, Steve Cherry, lost his life in the 9/11 attacks--rocking her to her core, and changing her family forever. Maryellen's life and love with Steve was all she could have hoped for; in the wake of his death, she was inconsolable. But ultimately, she had no choice but to be strong for her two young sons--and even when deep in the grip of hopeless despair, she found solace in her deep faith and belief that, with the support of friends and family, she would eventually find love and happiness once again. Her route to her happy ending proved long and winding and full of obstacles--cancer, family conflict, even more loss--but she always found a way forward, no matter the setbacks she encountered. An inspirational story that will provide hope to anyone who's experienced unfathomable loss and loneliness, The Road to Yesterday is a testament to the idea that there is always a path to love and joy--if only you're determined enough to keep yourself open to it.Author Biography
