"The World Without You" by Joshua Henkin

"The World Without You" by Joshua Henkin is a book that explores family dynamics of a family racked by a tragic loss of one of its members.  On the first aniversary of his death, his mother plans a memorial service for him.  All family member converge for the service.  The family dynamics are spot on with sibling rivalry, marital problems for the parents of the son who passed away, and ultimately one who steps forward for the real meaning of the day.  I loved this book.  4 stars.
