Download The Art of Death: Writing the Final Story AudioBook Free
A moving reflection on a topic that touches people, by the best-selling writer of Claire of the Sea Light. Edwidge Danticat's The Fine art of Loss of life: Writing the Final Story is at once an individual accounts of her mother dying from malignancy and a deeply considered reckoning with the ways that other freelance writers have approached fatality in their own work. "Writing has been the primary way I have tried to seem sensible of my deficits," Danticat records in her intro. "I have been writing about fatality for so long as I have been writing." The audiobook moves outward from the surprise of her mother's prognosis and sifts through Danticat's writing life and personal background, even while moving fluidly from samples that range between Gabriel Garcia Marquez's One CENTURY of Solitude to Toni Morrison's Sula. The narrative, which constantly circles the countless incarnations of fatality from person to large-scale catastrophes, culminates in a beautiful, heartrending prayer in the tone of voice of Danticat's mother. A moving tribute and a work of astute criticism, The Fine art of Loss of life can be an audiobook that will profoundly modify all who encounter it.
