Description

Counterpointing prose of great emotional restraint with blazingly candid poetry, Linda Baxter draws an achingly honest picture of her family’s slow-burning grief at the savage and senseless death of their only child. In 1999, Timothy Baxter and his friend were crossing the Hungerford Bridge in London when the two were attacked and thrown over by a group of six youths. For “Timo,” the evening was his last, and for Linda it was the beginning of a painful struggle for understanding and closure, captured in this haunting account of what happens when a parent faces their biggest fear–the loss of their child.
