Description
Time Lived, Without Its Flow is an astonishing, unflinching essay on the nature of grief from critically acclaimed poet Denise Riley. From the horrific experience of maternal grief Riley wrote her lauded collection Say Something Back, a modern classic of British poetry. This essay is a companion piece to that work, looking at the way time stops when we lose someone suddenly from our lives. An audiobook of two discrete halves, the first half is formed of diary-like entries written by Riley after the news of her son’s death, the entries building to paint a live portrait of loss. The second half is a ruminative postscript written some years later with Riley looking back at the experience philosophically and attempting to map through it a literature of consolation. Written in precise and exacting prose, with remarkable insight and grace, this audiobook will form kind counsel to all those living on in the wake of grief. A modern-day counterpart to C. S. Lewis’ A Grief Observed.
Published widely for the first time, this revised edition features a brand-new introduction by Max Porter, author of Grief Is a Thing with Feathers.
