Wave: A Memoir
Universally acclaimed around the world and a national bestseller in North America, Wave is an extraordinarily brave, beautifully written memoir of loss by a survivor of the 2004 tsunami.
Sonali Deraniyagala writes starkly and honestly, with no sentimentality, and the result is a raw, utterly engrossing, amazingly poised account of the devastating event that all at once changed her life as she knew it, and of her long journey since in search of understanding and redemption.
"An unforgettable book ... unsparing as they come, but also defiantly flooded with light." -- New York Times Book Review
