In this breathtaking memoir, Camille Roy pieces together journal entries, notes, and memories to document the intensely personal experience of losing one’s partner of thirty years. Woven together with the wisdom of her community and chosen kin, she manages to stay open-hearted as her world collapses. Told with a riveting clarity that could cut diamonds, Roy shares the difficult journey of caregiving and loss in this deeply tender, raw, and intimate combination of love letter and goodbye. 

Praise

A Death on Paper left me shook; Camille Roy’s unflinching narrative of love reckoning with mortality is an intimate revelation. Moving and generous, erotic and candid and lit up with the lush beauty of life on earth, this book is a marvel.
