Sinopse

Join 5x15 online in November to hear acclaimed playwright and screenwriter Abi Morgan in conversation with beloved One Day author and screenwriter David Nicholls. THIS IS NOT A PITY MEMOIR is BAFTA and Emmy-award winner Abi Morgan’s extraordinary story, written in the wake of her partner’s devastating illness. When she found the man she had loved for nearly twenty years lying on the bathroom floor, it was clear that life for both of them would never be the same again. But this is not a pity memoir – this is a love story. This is a book about the things you wished you’d said to the person you love; about the silence of being lost in space, and the importance of family, and parties, and noise. It’s about not knowing and not being known. It’s about the difference between living and surviving, and about finding a way to carry on when life is turned upside down. Above all, it’s a reminder that, even in the worst times, there is light ahead. Praise for Abi Morgan ‘Breathtaking.. this book is a gift’ - MERYL ST
