À propos de ce contenu audio

WINNER OF THE BRITISH RADIO ACADAMY ARIAS AWARD FOR BEST AUDIOBOOK

The comedian and star of Catastrophe's devastatingly moving memoir about his young son's death.

In this devastating, beautiful and deeply moving memoir of the loss of his son, Rob Delaney explores what life really means, and why it matters.

When you're a parent and your child gets hurt or sick, you not only try to help them get better but you also labour under the general belief that you can help them get better. That's not always the case though. Sometimes the nurses and the doctors can't fix what's wrong. Sometimes children die.

Rob's beautiful, bright, deeply alive son Henry died. This is the story of what happens when you lose a child, and everything you discover about life in the process. Why does he feel compelled to talk about it, to write about it, to disseminate information designed to make people feel something like what he felt? What his wife feels? What his other sons feel? Done properly or well, it will hurt them. Why does he want to hurt people?

Because, despite the death of his son, Rob still loves people. For that reason, he wants them to understand.

    Commentaires

    This book is so rich with grief and love and pain and humor and an incandescent, purifying, flame-throwing wrath. Though Delaney can't bring Henry back, he can - and does - show enough of him to the world to make a reader see him a little bit, know him a little bit, and fully love him. What an unbelievable gift (Lauren Groff)
    What a read. Its beauty and pain and humour and anger will help many people. This is a beautiful monument (Richard Osman)
    The weaving of the joy and pain, the love and loss, the absurdity of grief, is done so beautifully. It feels like a message in a bottle, a despatch, a communication from the depths of suffering and despair that ultimately brings a message of great hope (Cathy Rentzenbrink)

    I finished listening to this earlier, I've always been very fond of Rob Delaney, but this is outstanding and I can't recommend it highly enough. It feels strange to say a fathers story about the life and death of his 2 year old son, Henry, was entertaining, but somehow he makes it positive and often funny without holding back on the righteous anger that grief brings.

    At the beginning he quotes a line from Graham Greene's The End of The Affair, it's always struck a chord with me.

    'I hate you, God. I hate you as though you actually exist.'

    I’m glad to have met you Henry, I wish it could have been for longer.
