FROM THE MILLION-COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE WEDDING PEOPLE
Sally Holt has always been mystified by the things her older sister, Kathy, seems to have been born knowing. Kathy has answers for all of Sally's questions about life, about love and about Billy Barnes, the high school basketball star who runs the refreshment stand at the local pool. Billy's unfathomable, otherworldly cool puts him on a different planet - until a tragedy leaves Sally's life forever intertwined with his.
Opening in the early nineties and charting almost two decades of shared history and missed connections, Notes on Your Sudden Disappearance is a dazzlingly unconventional love story that brims with unexpected moments of joy.
THE ACCLAIMED SECOND NOVEL FROM ALISON ESPACH, NOW PUBLISHED IN THE UK FOR THE FIRST TIME.

An Intimate and personal Exploration of Grief
First of all „Notes of your sudden disappearance“ is an emotionally heavy novel, containing a very interesting concept. The protagonist Sally is writing letters to her dead sister. In the letters she is talking about her growing up and her grieve journey. This being said, this story can feel really depressing, especially reading about the coping mechanisms of some of these characters. It is really clear that a lot of these characters are struggling to move on. Alison Espach expresses this through her writing style and the isolating feeling you get while reading. In addition to the raw grieve this books also demonstrates how grieve can connect people and can even lead to obsession, with the dead and living. Overall this book is really intense. It’s a beautiful and personal concept, and a very sensitive portrayal of loss. Although it felt rushed in the end and not fully lived up to it‘s potential, Alison Espach tried to maintain the premise and it’s worth a read.
