Shadows in Winter

In late February 2007, Leah Fishbane's life was flourishing. A promising young graduate student in Jewish history, she was an adoring mother to her nearly four-year-old daughter and two months into a new pregnancy. In an instant, all this was gone: Leah was struck down suddenly with a previously undiagnosed brain tumor. In this deeply evocative memoir, her husband Eitan gives voice to the overwhelming nature of mourning, and to the uplifting power of memory.
