In Honor of Nina Riggs:
In conversation with Kelly Corrigan
The Bright Hour: A Memoir of Living and Dying is the final work by the late poet Nina Riggs. Inspired by her immensely popular piece in the New York Times’ “Modern Love” column, this exquisite memoir is about how to live—and love—every day with “death in the room.” Written after she was diagnosed with cancer at age 37, Rigg’s eloquent and profound story will take readers on journeys both personal and metaphorical.
Presenting this book is the author’s husband, John Duberstein, and Lucy Kalanithi, wife of author Paul Kalanithi (When Breath Becomes Air). They will be joined by bestselling memoirist Kelly Corrigan, who has called Riggs’s new book “magical” and “unforgettable.”
