| Synopsis: |
Laure Adler learned from a colleague that her nine-month-old baby son, Remi, had been taken ill, and she rushed to the hospital. So began months of battling - with uncommunicative doctors and nurses, and with her own feelings of guilt, terror and hopelessness. Seventeen years later, Laure Adler finally started to put her grief into words. In lucid, unsentimental prose, "Until Tonight" describes the nightmarish events she lived through. She is never given a clear prognosis, and Remi's continued resilience feeds a desperate kind of hope in his family - and in the reader. When he finally dies, Adler and her partner become "vagrants hunted by pain". |
