A Matter of Life and Death

In the face of death, living gains new meaning; it’s the darkness that makes the light shine bright.  

This is true for Michelle Lesh, an international lawyer and academic who helped prepare her late husband Mark Baker’s memoir A Season of Death for publication, and Patrick White Playwrights Award winner Ailsa Piper (For Life). The loss of their husbands brought life-altering grief and unexpected journeys of discovery, community and love.

Hear each of these writers reflect on their memoirs about navigating life after loss in this discussion hosted by Michaela Kalowski.
