08 Jul 2024
🎙 Douglas Vigliotti discusses the National Book Award-winning memoir “The Year of Magical Thinking” by Joan Didion. Drawing on Didion’s heartfelt story of losing her husband and daughter in the same year and her subtle yet piercing writing style, Vigliotti delves into themes of grief, loss, and the idea that stories we tell ourselves shape our perceptions, emotions, and lives, raising the importance of crafting positive narratives and embracing the complex nature of hope in the face of adversity.✓ Sign up for the monthly newsletter at BooksforMen.org.⚡️ Connect with the host on Instagram @douglasvigliotti or learn more about him at DouglasVigliotti.com.⭐️ Please consider sharing "Books for Men" with other men who enjoy reading, or subscribing and rating on your favorite podcast platform.
