Resumen del Editor
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “Part of Quindlen’s gift is that you don’t just read about these characters, you inhabit them. . . . Luminous with life, hope and the power of love.”—People (A Book of the Week Pick)
“[A] quietly revelatory and gently gleaming gem of a book.”—The New York Times Book Review (Editors’ Choice)
Anna Quindlen’s trademark wisdom on family, friendship, and the ties that bind us are at the center of this novel about the power of love to transcend loss and triumph over adversity, by the author of Still Life with Bread Crumbs and One True Thing.
When Annie Brown dies suddenly, her husband, her children, and her closest friend are left to find a way forward without the woman who has been the lynchpin of all their lives. Bill is overwhelmed without his beloved wife, and Annemarie wrestles with the bad habits her best friend had helped her overcome. And Ali, the eldest of Annie’s children, has to grow up overnight, to care for her younger brothers and even her father and to puzzle out for herself many of the mysteries of adult life.
Over the course of the next year what saves them all is Annie, ever-present in their minds, loving but not sentimental, caring but nobody’s fool, a voice in their heads that is funny and sharp and remarkably clear. The power she has given to those who loved her is the power to go on without her. The lesson they learn is that no one beloved is ever truly gone.
Written in Quindlen’s emotionally resonant voice and with her deep and generous understanding of people, After Annie is about hope, and about the unexpected power of adversity to change us in profound and indelible ways.
Reseñas de la Crítica
“After Annie is Anna Quindlen’s new wise and heartfelt novel of connection, of loss and love and the power of both. It celebrates the friends and family we have, mourns our great and small losses, and helps us find the unexpected light in the dark places we all have.”—Amy Bloom, New York Times bestselling author of In Love: A Memoir of Love and Loss
“The characters in After Annie are flawed, just as each of us is flawed, and as they fumble through their grief, as they make mistakes, their lives feel so authentically lived in that I’d swear I’ve known them my whole life. And how I rooted for them! In Quindlen’s hands, a story about the greatest of losses becomes a story of abiding hope above all. I predict this will be one of the best novels of the year.”—Mary Beth Keane, New York Times bestselling author of Ask Again, Yes
“A new Anna Quindlen novel is always cause for celebration. After Annie might just be my favorite one yet. It’s a beautiful and deeply moving story about love, loss, friendship, marriage, family, and community from one of our wisest chroniclers of modern life. I treasured every page.”—J. Courtney Sullivan, New York Times bestselling author of Friends and Strangers

Historia
The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

India Allwood grew up wanting to be an actor. Armed with a stack of index cards (for research/line memorization/make-shift confetti), she goes from awkward sixteen-year-old to Broadway ingenue to TV superhero. Her new movie is a prestige picture about adoption, but its spin is the same old tired story of tragedy. India is an adoptive mom in real life though. She wants everyone to know there’s more to her family than pain and regret. So she does something you should never do—she tells a journalist the truth: it’s a bad movie.

This spellbinding novel by bestselling author Ann Napolitano is a poignant reminder of how connected we are to those we love, even when we cannot find the words to say it. The unforgettable story of three generations of an Irish American family, Within Arm’s Reach is another rich and deeply satisfying novel from the author who captured the many dimensions of grief in Dear Edward and the unbreakable bonds of sisterhood in Hello Beautiful.

Outside of a childhood nickname she can’t shake, Piglet’s rather pleased with how her life’s turned out. An up-and-coming cookbook editor at a London publishing house, she’s got lovely, loyal friends and a handsome fiancé, Kit, whose rarefied family she actually, most of the time, likes, despite their upper-class eccentricities. One of the many, many things Kit loves about Piglet is the delicious, unfathomably elaborate meals she’s always cooking.

The fact that it approached grief in such a real way

I don’t know if I could finish it
Although written well, this book is very depressing. I feel drawn to listening to it but I feel like I can’t finish it if that makes sense. I have over two hours left. I may put it down and come back to it but as for now it is definitely not one of my top favorite listens. The narrator is pretty good though.

A bit of a yawn…
I’m a Big, Quinlan fan, but this book is one of her weakest. I finished the book, but never really engaged with any of the characters. The premise of the book is good, but the follow through isn’t there.

Thought provoking
This was not my usual type of read. It was very thought provoking and not something that is always a good time to read. It deals with some topics that can hit very close to home for some. Anne wrote this in a way that was very respectful and helped to skim the surface of some hard to talk about and or understand. Losing a mom when you are only in middle school is very hard. And reading from that one viewpoint was very interesting. I loved that she wrote the book through three very different viewpoints, oldest child(daughter Ali), husband Bill and best friend Annmarie. Each has their own unique relationships with Annie and how they handle her death and how the three of them interacted with each other. I definitely recommend this a must read when you are in the mood for it. A great read!

A Greiving Family
I really enjoy Anna Quindlen's writing, and this book is a perfect example of her plain speak style that gets across very layered and complex emotions. This is super sad, but the ending tries to spread hope.

Simply beautiful
“After Annie” is a quiet meditation on family grief. Only Anna Quindlen can craft a story that is remarkable in its perceptible ordinariness. Her stories grab the reader because they are real, they are identifiable. If her story hasn’t happened to you, it’s happened to someone you know.
In “After Annie”, Quindlen writes of the trauma to a young family of six, when the young mom, Annie, dies on the kitchen floor while orchestrating dinner. Ali, the oldest, age 13, processes the information with the reader. She was always an insightful child, but now her observation skills go into overdrive. Bill, Annie’s husband, is utterly shocked and bereft. Quindlen writes a moment in which he is in the bathroom, with one tiny piece of toilet paper and a cardboard tube mocking him. He never had to add toilet paper to any bathroom; Annie did it. And Bill is a plumber by profession. Annie’s best friend, Annemarie, finds herself rudderless without her best friend. Quindlen writes their friendship beautifully, in flashbacks. Annemarie imparts her wisdom to Ali after Annie dies. Ali tells Annemarie that it’s not fair, a man can get a new wife, but children can never get new mothers. Annemarie tells her that men need women; women need women, everyone needs women! Quindlen has always been a supporter of female friendships in her novels.
This isn’t all beautifully behaved females though. Bill’s mother, the children’s grandmother, well, she’s a handful. Luckily, neither my mother nor my mother-in-law had any resemblance to Bill’s mother; but I can assure you, you’ve had the unfortunate experience with that sort of woman. There is a serious TW regarding child abuse (not of Annie’s children), and the mother in that situation was complicit. Annemarie had personal struggles which Annie helped her through. In other words, the women are real.
Of course there is the journey of grief. For me, Ali’s journey was heartbreaking as she navigated her puberty without her mother; they had been very close. Plus, Ali is trying to figure out the world without her mother’s guidance. Bill is trying to keep his family together, fed, clothed, and schooled. He now realizes all the jobs that Annie did, unbeknownst to him. Quindlen breaks up the story in seasons, beginning and ending in winter. She provides the POV’s of Ali, Bill, and Annemarie. The vacuum that occurs after the loss of a lively, beloved, friend, mother, employee is astounding. Only Quindlen can write in such a moving way.
I listened to the audio, narrated by Gilli Messer. It took me some time to get used to Messer’s cadence and tone. When I did, I realized she performed the book beautifully. It’s about grief, it’s sad.
