Praises

“A piercing, devastating, and tender text, this book sees what it means to be broken and built back up again, by grief and by love, but yes, most of all, by love.” |
—  Janice Lee, author of Imagine a Death and Separation Anxiety

“I gulped this book. I wept this book. This gift of a book. This love story that blows open what a love story’s supposed to be and reveals the vastness of what it is. Read this book, for the hungry, tender heart you have, for the heart you long to remember.”
— Jen Violi, author of Putting Makeup on Dead People

“There’s no one, and I mean no one, who writes like Anne Gudger. A balm to the heart and a hug and an ‘It’s so good, I wish I wrote that’ kind of beautiful.”
— Jennifer Pastiloff, bestselling author of On Being Human 

“A shivering triumph. A brilliant heartsong.”
— Lidia Yuknavitch, author of Thrust and Chronology of Water.

“Startling, incisive, musical…Our memories are our own, but in The Fifth Chamber, we find each other. This is a remarkable book.”
