Love and Other Impossible Pursuits by Ayelet Waldman Tolstoy Lied: A Love Story by Rachel Kadish Ayelet Waldman dazzles with her portrayal of a modern New York family lost in a fog of grief, anger, jealousy, and, of course, the love that put them all together in the first place. It’s any mother’s nightmare: Two days home from the hospital, Emilia Greenleaf loses her new baby, Isabel, to SIDS. Emilia’s grief consumes her entirely, and to cope she flees her memory-ridden Upper West Side apartment and wanders aimlessly through Central Park for hours at a time.
