Jojo Moyes, 2012
Louisa Clark leads a routine existence. When she looses her job at a
cafe, she applies for and gets a job caring for Will, a recently
paralyzed man. Will Traynor, suffered a spinal cord injury when hit by a
motorcycle. His frustration with quadriplegia makes the job almost
unbearable for Lou. When she discovers that Will intends to end his own
life, Lou makes it her mission to persuade him that life is still
worth living. In the process of planning “adventures”, Lou begins to
understand the extent of Will’s isolation; while Will introduces Lou to
ideas outside of her small existence. The end result is a lovely
novel, both nontraditional and enthralling.
