Live Fast by Brigitte Giraud
After the sudden death of her partner in a car crash, the narrator delivers a spare, unsparing memoir that reconstructs the day, the accident, the ensuing investigation and the slow, raw work of grieving; through precise, economical prose she collects fragments of memory, domestic detail and legal fact to probe love, responsibility, guilt and the randomness by which ordinary life is shattered, using writing itself as a means of reckoning with loss.
