A delicate and darkly witty reflection on loss, marriage, writing, and life in New York from an acclaimed biographer and memoirist. Dorothy Gallagher’s husband, Ben Sonnenberg, died in 2010. He had suffered from multiple sclerosis for many years and was almost completely paralyzed, but his wonderful, playful mind remained quite undimmed. In the ten sections of Stories I Forgot to Tell You, Gallagher moves freely and intuitively between the present and the past to evoke the life they made together and her life after his death, alone and yet at the same time never without thoughts of him, in a present that is haunted but also comforted by the recollection of their common past. She talks—the whole book is written conversationally, confidingly, unpretentiously—about small things, such as moving into a new apartment and setting it up, growing tomatoes on a new deck, and as she does she recalls her missing husband’s elegant clothes and British affectations, what she knew about him and didn’t know, the devastating toll of his disease and the ways they found to deal with it. She talks about their two dogs and their cat, Bones, and the role that a photograph she never took had in bringing her together with her husband. Her mother, eventually succumbing to dementia, is also here, along with friends, an old typewriter, episodes from a writing life, and her husband’s last days. The stories Gallagher has to tell, as quirky as they are profound, could not be more ordinary, and yet her glancing, wry approach to memory and life gives them an extraordinary resonance that makes the reader feel both the logic and the mystery of a couple’s common existence. Her prose is perfectly pitched and her eye for detail unerring. This slim book about irremediable loss and unending love distills the essence of a lifetime.

Love is a delicate and soft emotion by its very nature. It’s very easy to love someone but difficult to endure. When we love someone, we have to accept their virtues and vices, and sometimes we face the consequences of that acceptance. Nobody is always right or wrong; their behavior depends upon the conditions. It’s very difficult to understand, but still, we should accept the truth. Misunderstanding is a very big wall that can part people. Love doesn’t teach us extreme hate. Humans think of love in terms of profit and loss, forgetting that love is something that involves giving only. It is wrong to say that if you love someone they must love you back. This is a mistake we make. When there is selfishness in love, then the originality of love gets lost. Love is the golden thread that ties us up in one beautiful garland called relationship. This relationship is a great world of emotions for which we live our whole lives, ready to sacrifice. This book is a small attempt to untie this emotional world.
