When I first started reading this book, I had no idea it was an autobiography (I just skimmed over the first paragraph of the description to see if it was something I thought I might like). One day (after I had read about 4 chapters) I realized that the author was writing about himself and his wife, not as a true story, but a fictional account based on a true story. The chapters alternate between the present time and the first three weeks of their relationship, so you get a sense of who they were, who they are now and what brought them there. Though this book has is on a heavy topic, there are also lots of light-hearted memories shared. Not only was he sad about his wife's illness and impending death, he began to realize what it actually MEANT that she was dying. Not only would she be gone, but the future he had envisioned for them together was dying too. I'd definitely recommend this book.
