About this listen

Losing Gerry by Patricia O'Brien is a heartfelt and compelling story that explores the complexities of grief, loss, family and same sex love.

The story is autobiographical and revolves around the author Patty, who is deeply impacted by the sudden loss of her lover Gerry (Geraldine). As she struggles with her overwhelming emotions, Patty reflects on her relationship with Gerry, which was both fraught and intimate.

The story delves into Patty's internal journey as she grapples with the silence that follows by the loss of a loved one. It explores themes of memory, forgiveness and the impact of family history and present-day life. As Patty sorts through her memories both painful and joyous, she must confront unresolved issues within herself and her family, all while trying to make sense of her lover's untimely death.

The Story also touches on the broader notion of how we cope with the fragility of life and the often unpredictable way grief manifests.
