- Synopsis
- In 1995 Elizabeth Stone received an unexpected gift - a carton of notebooks, the journals of a former high-school student named Vincent. Dying of AIDS at the age of forty, Vincent willed his diaries to his former ninth-grade teacher, asking her to turn his life into a book. Stone weaves her own life story through excerpts from Vincent's diaries. As Vincent comes to terms with the deaths of friends and with his own approaching end, Stone is helped to make her own peace with loss and death as a part of life.
