Why this must be read:
9/11 is a solemn day for many, with the reasons as varied as the individuals. Rebecca's poignant and moving look at what it means for Paul Davis moves the reader, no matter what that day means to them personally. The author's sheer talent for writing emotions is evidenced by the heavy themes she has Paul touching on, like survivor's guilt and the "why me" question so many survivors ask. Why did one room of survivors live while on the other side of a wall of sheet rock, death ruled supreme? What effect does this have on the survivors? This emotional exploration at survival, pain, growth, and memories will move you just as it did me. Don't miss it.
Story Summary: A memorial
Davis realized he hadn't heard a word of General Myers' speech. So much had happened over the past two years, but in an instant he was right back there. Was this what a flashback was? A memory so strong that the past became the present?
How was it that only a wall had separated the dead from the living that moment? What was the basis for deciding that those in one meeting room should drop the chain of memory and cross over into the unknown, while those in the next room should live on to take up the chain and add their own links to it?
