"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

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.
