When We Were All Still Alive
あらすじ・解説
For Conrad Burrell — husband, father, and successful attorney in the autumn of his life — the world has come apart. Having long ago lost his first wife, the mother of his grown daughter and a widow herself, to youth and pride, he’s now lost his second to a violent accident.
“You think you’re finished, that you have no more stories in you,” his ex-wife warns, and he fears she’s right. After a lifetime of meeting the expectations of others, none are left but his own, and he must discover whether love survives death as well as divorce — whether memories of family and the balm of friendships can redeem individual mortality.
"What do we do, then, when there’s nothing left but the world’s permission to stop what we’ve done all our lives?"
In his memories of the great coastal cities of his youth, in the deserts of New Mexico, but most of all in a small town within hailing distance of the end of his days, Conrad Burrell finds he has one more lesson in love to learn from the women of his past, and the one woman he's certain he can't live without. When We Were All Still Alive is a novel of grief and healing, a portrait of a marriage, and a love song to ordinary lives.
