Lost & Found: A Memoir

Hunter says: In the ‘Lost’ section, Kathryn talks about the loss of her father. In the ‘Found’ section,  she talks about her finding her wife. The ‘&’ section discusses the connection between the two. A lyrically written memoir for fans of Educated

Eighteen months before Kathryn Schulz’s father died, she met the woman she would marry. In Lost & Found, she weaves the story of those relationships into a brilliant exploration of the role that loss and discovery play in all of our lives. The resulting book is part memoir, part guidebook to living in a world that is simultaneously full of wonder and joy and wretchedness and suffering–a world that always demands both our gratitude and our grief. A staff writer at The New Yorker and winner of the Pulitzer Prize, Schulz writes with curiosity, tenderness, erudition, and wit about our finite yet infinitely complicated lives. Lost & Found is an enduring account of love in all its many forms from one of the great writers of our time.
