    “Jayson Greene’s two-year-old daughter Greta was sitting on a park bench on the Upper West Side when a brick crumbled, hit her head, and knocked her out. She’s rushed to the hospital. In the coming hours, it becomes clear that Greta will die. This is how Greene’s memoir horrifically begins. Powerful account of acceptance and grief.”
