Sarah speaks with author Lisa C. Taylor about her poignant and emotionally layered novel, The Shape of What Remains. The story centers on Teresa Calvano, an English professor whose life was forever altered when her six-year-old daughter, Serena, was tragically killed in a split-second accident. A decade later, Teresa is still struggling to navigate her grief, haunted by unanswered questions and the weight of unresolved guilt.
As those around her urge her to move on, Teresa seeks solace in literature, therapy, and the soul-baring music of Janis Joplin. Her journey through sorrow, memory, and hope unfolds with raw honesty, revealing the enduring power of maternal love and the complexity of loss. Lisa C. Taylor masterfully captures the fragile balance between grief and healing, weaving a story that resonates deeply with anyone who has experienced profound emotional loss.
In her conversation with Sarah, Lisa discusses the inspiration behind the novel, the emotional research involved in writing such a personal story, and the role of art and language in processing trauma. This powerful interview offers insight into both the craft of writing and the courage it takes to face painful truths head-on.
Whether you're a fan of literary fiction, character-driven narratives, or stories that explore the intricate emotional terrain of human relationships, this episode offers a compelling listen.
