Title: Afterlife by Paul Monette ISBN: 0758201885 Publisher: Kensington Pub Corp Pub. Date: July, 2002 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $15.00 |

Summary: After Borrowed Time
Comment: What happens to all those friendships formed among the relatives of the dying in intensive care wards? This excellent novel explores some of the options through believable characters and a thrilling plot. If you've read Borrowed Time -- surely one of the better books I've read -- you should treat yourself to this book. It's much lighter; but Monette's tact doesn't lose its point.
Rating: 3
Summary: MORE OF THE SAME
Comment: Monette is eloquent as always. However, the theme is tired, worn out and depressing.
Rating: 5
Summary: A powerful look at what happens to those left behind
Comment: "Afterlife" by Paul Monette struck me in many ways. It made me realize what happens to the living after those we love so much are gone. It is disturbing in an eye-opening way, and as one reviewer stated, revolutionary in its own right.
The characters are well formed, not sterotypical, and show how any human can react to a loss of a loved one to something so meaningless.... Gay or straight in so much of it is not relevant. It more than anything else I have read, shows the devestation and the legacy that AIDS has left behind.
