| Description: | Select Guide Rating From an exciting new literary voice: a memoir that explores grief, Blackness, and recovery after the death of a dear friend. After an unexpected phone call on an early morning in 2018, writer and model Eirinie Carson learned of her best friend Larissa''s death. In the wake of her shock, Eirinie attempts to make sense of the events leading up to Larissa''s death and uncovers startling secrets about her life in the process. THE DEAD ARE GODS is Eirinie''s striking, intimate, and profoundly moving depiction of life after a sudden loss. Amid navigating moments of intense grief, Eirinie is overwhelmed by her love for Larissa. She finds power in pulling moments of joy from the depths of her emotion. Eirinie''s portrayal of what love feels like after death bursts from the page alongside a timely, honest, and personal exploration of Black love and Black life. Perhaps, Eirinie proposes, ''The only way out is through.'' |
