The Farewell Chronicles

"In The Farewell Chronicles, with a voice and style that is all her own, Anneli Rufus investigates our responses to death as no writer has ever done before. Starting with keen observations on the deaths of many she has known - loved ones and casual acquaintances, children and adults, friends and enemies - Rufus explores with candor, clarity, and compassion those reactions that feel so real and yet so scarily inappropriate: from guilt, greed, and relief to apathy, rejoicing, and beyond. While polite society hesitates even to talk about death, The Farewell Chronicles breaks this code of silence, daring to show that mourning is as individual as we are, and that there are no "right" or "wrong" ways to mourn."--Jacket.

המשפט הראשון: WHEN I MOVED into the Alsace Arms, its six stucco stories rising from a corner like a buttercream-frosted cake, its manager was an eighty-four-year-old man named Mr. Kalb.
