Ahern, the twentysomething daughter of Ireland's prime minister, has discovered a clever and original twist to the Moving On After Death concept made famous by novelists and screenwriters alike-Gerry has left Holly a series of letters designed to help her face the year ahead and carry on with her life. 'synopsis' may belong to another edition of this title.Ĭecelia Ahern's debut novel, PS, I Love You, follows the engaging, witty, and occasionally sappy reawakening of Holly, a young Irish widow who must put her life back together after she loses her husband Gerry to a brain tumor. Life is for living, she realises-but it always helps if there's an angel watching over you. With some help from her friends, and her noisy and loving family, Holly finds herself laughing, crying, singing, dancing-and being braver than ever before. The man who knows her better than anyone sets out to teach her that life goes on. As the notes are gradually opened, and as the year unfolds, Holly is both cheered up and challenged. He's left her a bundle of notes, one for each of the months after his death, gently guiding Holly into her new life without him, each note signed 'PS, I Love You'. But as her 30th birthday looms, Gerry comes back to her.

No one could imagine Holly and Gerry without each other.

Childhood sweethearts, they could finish each other's sentences and even when they fought, they laughed. A wonderfully warm and heartfelt debut from a stunning new talent.Įveryone needs a guardian angel! Some people wait their whole lives to find their soul mates.
