Abstract

[INLINE:1] Author : Nina Riggs Publisher : Simon & Schuster Paperbacks Published : June 6, 2017 ISBN : 978-1-5011-6937-3 Price : 16 USD No. of pages : 310 Cover Design & Illustration : Samantha Hahn Has someone ever asked you the question, “what would you do if you could live forever?”. Nina Riggs, faced with the prognosis of terminal metastatic breast cancer, not only acknowledges it but prepares for the certainty of it in her poignant, heart-wrenching, yet life-affirming memoir. Even with its beautiful, deep writing and insights, this novel did not stay with me as strongly as other books that also ponder on what makes life meaningful.
