An Entertainment Weekly and BookPage Best Book of the Year
During her treatment for cancer, Mary Anne Schwalbe and her son Will spent many hours sitting in waiting rooms together. To pass the time, they would talk about the books they were reading. Once, by chance, they read the same book at the same time—and an informal book club of two was born. Through their wide-ranging reading, Will and Mary Anne—and we, their fellow readers—are reminded how books can be comforting, astonishing, and illuminating, changing the way that we feel about and interact with the world around us. A profoundly moving memoir of caregiving, mourning, and love—The End of Your Life Book Club is also about the joy of reading, and the ways that joy is multiplied when we share it with others.

圖書標籤: 閱讀 生命 英文原版 母愛 時光記 小說 迴憶錄 關於書
在生命的最後兩年,不因為病痛而改變,仍然在閱讀,付齣,關心傢人朋友和世界。“Mary Anne saw the worst and believed the best."
評分我很想把這本書推薦給我身邊的人,不一定所有人都會喜歡這故事。裏麵推薦瞭很多書,有些我看過,有些沒有。我覺得感動不僅是因為真人真事,還有所有故事裏所包含的感情。
評分Even if you cannot see each other anymore, the books you both read can still make the connection.
評分quite moving and sad
評分通過和母親兩人之間的book club,作者對”death“和”dying“都有瞭新的認識。羨慕這樣的親子關係,裏麵列的書單也很有價值。
