Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Frank Murray is eighty-three now, and the house on the Cape Breton shore has gotten quieter than even grief can explain. Three years after the season chronicled in The Push, his body is narrowing in ways his mind refuses to keep pace with, and his daughter Ann finally does the thing she has been circling for years. She comes home.The Pull is the third and closing novel in the Rise Again series, and it belongs to Ann as much as it belongs to Frank. Where The Conversation was Frank's grief year and The Push was his reckoning with the man he had been, this book turns to the daughter who carries what's left. Ann steps into the strange, unglamorous work of caregiving: the doctor's appointments, the small negotiations over what Frank can still do for himself, the drawer in the kitchen that nobody has opened since her mother died. Along the way she finds pieces of her mother she never knew to look for, and a father who is, even now, still becoming someone new.Jean, the AI companion who first appeared as Frank's late-night confidant, is still part of the household, though the conversation has changed shape. So has the question underneath it: not how do you survive losing someone, but how do you carry someone toward the end, with patience, with resentment, with love that shows up disguised as duty.This is a novel about the ones who stay in the room. It treats aging and dying not as tragedy but as a natural, ordinary, and sometimes even peaceful passage, one that asks something different of the people left standing nearby than sudden loss ever does. Readers of The Conversation and The Push will find the characters they know changed by time, and readers new to the series will find a complete, standalone story about coming home before it's too late.For readers of Elizabeth Strout, Kent Haruf, and anyone who has ever driven home not knowing exactly what they'd find.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The Push is the second novel in the Rise Again series, following Frank Murray three years after the loss chronicled in The Conversation. The sharpest grief has settled, and in its place has come something harder to name: the long, unguarded look back at who he was before he became a widower. Across a Cape Breton year, Frank returns to the people and choices that shaped him, a marriage, a classroom, thirty-four years of teaching, and the quiet decisions a man makes without noticing he is making them. Told with the same restraint and close attention to daily life that marked the first book, The Push is a novel about memory as a kind of work, and about what it costs, and gives back, to look honestly at a life already lived.Frank Murray chose to keep going. That was how the first year ended - a decision, made quietly, at a kitchen table in Glace Bay. Now time has passed. The grief has settled into something he can carry. What has risen in its place is harder: the remembering.When a young neighbour named Ryan walks up Frank's driveway one March afternoon with a decision he hasn't said out loud to anyone, Frank is pulled into a season of looking back - at who he was as a husband, as a father, as the man his daughters left behind. The remembering takes him places the grief never did. Some of what comes back is not the version of himself he wanted to meet again.The Push is a novel about memory, family, and the slow work of seeing what you did when you still had the chance to do it differently.Book Two of the Rise Again trilogy.For readers of Plainsong by Kent Haruf, Olive Kitteridge by Elizabeth Strout, and All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr.Content note: This novel explores grief, memory, family estrangement, and the reckoning with one's own past. Reader discretion is advised. Book Two of the Rise Again series. Three years after loss, a retired Cape Breton teacher looks back at the marriage, the career, and the choices that made him who he is.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The story begins with seventy-two-year-old Frank Murray facing the devastating death of his wife of forty-one years. Left alone in the silence of his home and uncertain how to move forward, Frank discovers a laptop left behind by his fourteen-year-old grandson. On the screen is an open AI chatbot. Unsure what else to do, the retired English teacher types three simple words: "My wife died." What follows becomes a year-long journey of conversation-not only with a machine that cannot truly remember him, but also with family members struggling to comfort him, a stray cat that unexpectedly enters his life, and the fractured parts of himself still deciding whether life is worth continuing. The Conversation examines grief with remarkable tenderness and emotional honesty, capturing the small moments, awkward silences, and private reflections that often define mourning. Franks avoids sentimentality in favour of authenticity, presenting a protagonist whose pain feels profoundly real while also illuminating the subtle ways connection and hope can slowly re-emerge. Through Frank's conversations, readers are invited to reflect on loneliness, aging, companionship, and the increasingly complex role technology plays in emotional life.Inspired by the universal experience of loss and the changing nature of human communication, Franks crafted the novel to explore how people seek understanding and comfort when traditional answers fall short. The story raises thoughtful questions about memory, empathy, and emotional survival while remaining grounded in deeply relatable human experiences. Its quiet, reflective tone allows readers to connect intimately with Frank's emotional journey.The Conversation is a quiet novel about grief, stubbornness, and the strange mercy of putting words somewhere - anywhere - when the person you said them to is gone.Book One of the Rise Again trilogy. Each book stands alone. After losing his lifelong partner, a grieving widower finds an unexpected lifeline in an artificial intelligence, embarking on a poignant journey to rediscover connection in a world that feels increasingly silent.
