About The Book:
Felice and Ira Zaslow’s love story spanned almost four decades, from the beaches of Far Rockaway to a comfortable suburban existence on the south shore of Long Island. She taught sixth grade at the local middle school, while he commuted daily to Lehman Brothers in the World Trade Center. As their sons grew up, they appreciated each day, looking forward to more time as a couple.
Then came the morning of September 11, 2001.
Through the days, weeks and months that followed, Felice had to find her way through unfathomable trauma, on a path she had to forge herself, seeking guidance and role models along the way. This remarkable and inspiring memoir puts a very personal face on a national tragedy, facing down the darkness by looking for the light that is always present.

Book Blurbs:
“Throughout this poignant work of grief and resilience, Zaslow offers us touchstones of wisdom to help any of us navigate the churning waters of loss. None perhaps is more powerful than the invitation from Emerson to go, not where a path may obviously lead, but rather to where there is no evident path, and instead create a new trail. This, in essence, is the journey of moving forward through loss and its consequent shaking of all that had been true. We are summoned to devise our own way into new understandings, new perspectives on who we are and who we might be, and novel meanings. Zaslow, in her direct, honest, warm and caring manner, describes not only the path she began to blaze after the sudden loss of her husband the day the towers in NYC fell, but illustrates for any of us the possibility that we might be able to do the same.”- Maria Sirois, PsyD, author of A Short Course in Happiness After Loss (and Other Dark, Difficult Times)
