Award-winning author Jill McCorkle takes us on a splendid journey through time and memory in this, her tenth work of fiction. Life After Life is filled with a sense of wonder at our capacity for self-discovery at any age. And the residents, staff, and neighbors of the Pine Haven retirement center (from twelve-year-old Abby to eighty-five-year-old Sadie) share some of lifes most profound discoveries and are some of the most true-to-life characters that you are ever likely to meet in fiction. Delivered with her trademark wit, Jill McCorkles constantly surprising novel illuminates the possibilities of second chances, hope, and rediscovering life right up to the very end. She has conjured an entire community that reminds us that grace and magic canand doappear when we least expect it.

I started reading McCorkle when my sister studied with her at Bennington, and kept reading because she's a North Carolina author whose voice I enjoy. #life #JuneBookBugs @RealLifeReading

This book took me months to read. It coincided with my mother's death and the subject was just too difficult to read for a while. But I finally finished it this evening and I'm glad I didn't give up on it. A fine novel of the unexpected impact we all have on each other and the secrets and unexpressed longing that can keep us apart. And the acts of self-discovery that continue through life.
