• One woman’s searing account of losing her entire family in a tsunami.
“The most exceptional book about grief I’ve ever read…. As unsparing as they come, but also defiantly flooded with light…. Extraordinary.” —Cheryl Strayed, The New York Times Book Review
A Kirkus Reviews Best Nonfiction Book of the Century
In 2004, at a beach resort on the coast of Sri Lanka, Sonali Deraniyagala and her family—parents, husband, sons—were swept away by a tsunami. Only Sonali survived to tell their tale. This is her account of the nearly incomprehensible event and its aftermath.
