Beginning with Holden's death and leaping through time and space, McGuire employs fact, investigation, memory, fantasy, and even fabrication in her search for understanding not only of her son's tragic death, but also his beautiful life. She navigates and writes across the many blank spaces to form a story of discovery and humanity, examining themes of grief, pain, mental illness, trauma, creative expression, identity, and deep, unending love inside just one of the thousands of deaths that have occurred as a result of the opioid crisis. \u003cbr\u003eWith poignant honesty and a heart laid bare, \u003ci\u003eHolden After and Before\u003c\/i\u003e is a beautiful and moving elegy to a son lost to overdose.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tara McGuire\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1551528932\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781551528939\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arsenal Pulp Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/11\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 356\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 1.00d","brand":"Tara McGuire","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43945951265023,"sku":"9781551528939","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_1f0ff139-05ae-4c13-8075-6c9d16db0e96.jpg?v=1681510685","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/holden-after-and-before-tara-mcguire-9781551528939","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
