Beautifully written, you can feel the grief from the pages.

A really interesting read on how grief affects us.

teared up several times. adiche captures the unmooring of grief while simultaneously inviting us to witness the love she has for her father and the love her father has for his children. 

Grief has, as one of its many egregious components, the onset of doubt. No, I am not imagining it. Yes, my father truly was lovely.

Very reflective, made me think about my own experience with grief. You can tell Chimamanda's father's death hit her hard. The love that she has for her parents is something I wish I had with mine. Her writing made me reflect on my own dynamics with my parents.
