- Summary:
- In the summer of 2000, Laure Adler narrowly escaped a serious car accident, only to realize that it was exactly 17 years after her son Remis death. Determined to put her grief into words, Adler reveals the story of Remis losing battle to an illness with no distinct identity. Throughout it all, Remi remains bravely resilient and calm, providing his family with a sense of hope for his survival. Adler intersperses the events of Remis illness with her memories of happier times. She has since gone on to have two daughters, and the book is written partly for them, so that they can better understand her story and the story of the brother they never knew. Until Tonight is a testimony to a childs bravery and a mothers love for her son. A loving memorial to a lost child. A great book. Marie Claire
