Marina Keegan's star was on the rise when she graduated magna cum laude from Yale in May 2012. She had a play that was to be produced at the New York Fringe Festival and a job waiting for her at The New Yorker. Tragically, five days after graduation, Marina died in a car crash. As her family, friends, and classmates, deep in grief, joined to create a memorial service for Marina, her deeply affecting last essay for The Yale Daily News, "The Opposite of Loneliness," went viral, receiving more than 1.4 million hits. Even though she was just twenty-two years old when she died, Marina left behind a rich, deeply expansive trove of prose that, like her title essay, capture the hope, uncertainty, and possibility of her generation. Her short story, "Cold Pastoral," was published in NewYorker.com just months after her death. The Opposite of Loneliness is an assemblage of Marina's essays and stories, which, like The Last Lecture, articulate the universal struggle that all of us face as we figure out what we aspire to be, and how we harness our talents to impact the world"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 $a Audio cds 650 $a Leased audio cds 650 7 $a BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Personal Memoirs $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a FICTION / Literary $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a LITERARY COLLECTIONS / Essays $2 bisacsh 941 $a 2 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20150804012144.0 952 $l CQPE926 $d 20150404014355.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=94B9CBBCDA9011E4BEC786A7DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
