A child makes history as the first recipient of a double-organ transplant. A young woman's progress toward adulthood stalls following the loss of a beloved relative. An old man finds an unexpected connection at his sibling's wake. Author Carrie Grinstead states, "I wanted to build a collection of stories that all touch, at least loosely, on health and medicine, death and the body." Provocative and original, these stories explore our vulnerability and fallibility."I Have Her Memories Now is a dark and beautiful collection of stories about girls and women, daughters and mothers, friendship and loneliness.

Her stories are utterly hers; they sound like no one else. I really love this book"--Robert BoswellFiction. Women's Studies.
