Comfort by Ann Hood
Rarely do memoirs of grief combine anguish, love, and fury with such elegance. Entertainment Weekly
"Comfort is novelist Ann Hood’s utterly harrowing, completely spellbinding memoir of losing her five-year-old daughter, Grace, to a rare form of strep in 2002. . . [A] spare, gorgeously serpentine narrative. . . . Unforgettable." -- Elle
"Comfort enriches our lives. . . . I will most likely never eat pasta with butter and Parmesan or cucumbers cut in perfect rounds . . . without thinking of Ann Hood and her daughter. And I have never met either one." -- Los Angeles Times
"Hood is larger than life, living, loving, and grieving on an operatic scale." -- New York Times Book Review
"In graceful prose, Comfort bears witness to the heartbreaking particularity of her—of any—loss." -- People
