Interweaving and disentangling her own memories and those of her family, and by reconstructing a legal and medical paper trail, Macari begins a dialogue with the dead, bringing her brother’s lost voice back to her after years of sealing herself off from him.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEmbedded in her story is the devastation of a culture that elevates guns and violence over the sacredness of human life.
