When Life Changes in an Instant
Life changes fast. Life changes in the instant. One moment you're sitting down to dinner with your husband of nearly forty years, and the next, he's slumped over in his chair, gone forever. This is what happened to Joan Didion on December 30, 2003, when her husband John Gregory Dunne died suddenly of a massive coronary event. The shock was compounded by the fact that their only daughter, Quintana, lay unconscious in a nearby hospital, suffering from pneumonia and septic shock. In the span of moments, Didion's world collapsed, thrusting her into what she would later call her "year of magical thinking" - a period marked by grief so profound it altered her perception of reality itself. What follows is not just a journey through loss, but an exploration of how the mind attempts to make sense of the senseless, to find order in chaos, to keep breathing when the very ground beneath you has disappeared.
