“This is a beautiful love story, and an extraordinary story of loss. Say Her Name has a forensic honesty, a way of treating each detail, each moment, each emotion, with detailed and exact care. It also has a way of holding the reader, of moving between Brooklyn and Mexico City, capturing the essence of two worlds, capturing the essence of two people who were lucky enough to fall in love.”—Colm Toibin

In 2005, celebrated novelist Francisco Goldman married a beautiful young writer named Aura Estrada in a romantic Mexican hacienda. The month before their second anniversary, during a long-awaited holiday, Aura broke her neck while body surfing. Francisco, blamed for Aura’s death by her family and blaming himself, wanted to die, too. Instead, he wrote Say Her Name, a novel chronicling his great love and unspeakable loss, tracking the stages of grief when pure love gives way to bottomless pain.
Suddenly a widower, Goldman collects everything he can about his wife, hungry to keep Aura alive with every memory. From her childhood and university days in Mexico City with her fiercely devoted mother to her studies at Columbia University, through their newlywed years in New York City and travels to Mexico and Europe—and always through the prism of her gifted writings—Goldman seeks her essence and grieves her loss. Humor leavens the pain as he lives through the madness of grief and creates a living portrait of a love as joyous as it is deep and profound.
Say Her Name is a love story, a bold inquiry into destiny and accountability, and a tribute to Aura, who she was and who she would've been.

评分喜欢看故事情节的我其实一开始并不喜欢这本书:什么嘛,女主都死了有啥好看的,直到我看到一句话。 在书的第一节,女主生前曾说过:我结婚可不是为了一个人吃午饭,我结婚可不是为了一个人过日子。第二节中,作者忆起妻子,想着自己在厨房里看着妻子坐在门外防火梯上的椅子上看...
评分书名真的很好听 总结成一句话就是一位鳏夫的碎碎念 失去挚爱的感觉可能再多的文字也无法表达,也许是我还未遇到一生所爱,所以无法体会作者内心真实的感受,没有见过鬼的人或许并不会真的相信它的存在 有时候也问自己,关于未来,关于可能出现的人,纵然时光匆匆,问题依然没有...
评分来不及告别 你的离去 让我抱着回忆苦苦的走在人间 像痛失爱侣的狼 像孤独单飞的雁 草原变得悲凉的宽 天空已成灰色的蓝 爱 不过是碎碎念 你的名字 在心口辗转 脱口而出 浑不觉然 仿佛你还在身边 胸膛熨帖着你的侧脸 短暂的几年 用深情填满 注定 要用一生怀念

I like the final chapters better.
评分I was intrigued by the sincerity of the author's love story at first and a little disgust by his subtle complaining toward his mother-in-law. He may have a problem with her, but hey, you really have to attack a childless single mom in your book and make her infamous in everyone's mind read this book? The author obiviously don't have a big heart.
评分这种琐碎深情的文总是让人昏昏欲睡啊。。。
评分细碎但是感人
评分太琐碎琐碎琐碎又太细腻细腻细腻,如果不是audiobook肯定看不下来,但听着耳边碎碎念那么多回忆的片段,却又那么感同身受
