Klappentext In late February 2007, Leah Fishbane's life was flourishing. A promising young graduate student in Jewish history, she was an adoring mother to her nearly four-year-old daughter and two months into a new pregnancy. In an instant, all this was gone: Leah was struck down suddenly with a previously undiagnosed brain tumor. In this deeply evocative memoir, her husband Eitan gives voice to the overwhelming nature of mourning, and to the uplifting power of memory. Zusammenfassung Shadows in Winter delivers a harrowing and loving account of one widowers path from suffering to survival! and to a rediscovery of himself as a father.
