Your Father's Voice: Letters for Emmy about Life with Jeremy--And Without Him After 9/11

Jeremy Glick was one the heros of flight 93 on 9/11. In this powerfully touching and captivating book, his wife, Lyz Glick, writes of life with Jeremy before & after 9/11 in the context of letters to their daughter, who was just three months old when he died. This is a heartbreaking yet heroic & gripping story. Truly one of the best books I've ever read - I couldn't put this book down!

Through the horror and devastation of 9/11, comes this profound and well written book, a book of letter's from a wonderful widow of a hero to that of her young child. The book that not only tells the happenings of 9/11, but lets us see in to the world that this particular man lived, and loved, prior to him becoming a household name. With love and dignity, this wonderful woman (Lyz Glick)shares her story with us as well as that of her child. It is heartwarming and for lack of better words to describe-emotionally beautiful. I recommend: Skywriting by Jane Pauley and Nightmares Echo by Katlyn Stewart

A powerfull and poignant book written by Jeremy Glick's widow, Lyz Glick and author Dan Zegart. The book is in the form of letters written to their daughter Emmy, who was three months old at the time of Jeremy's tragic death. One of the most interesting aspects, in my opinion, is the way the book is written in two narratives: 1) life with jeremy; and 2) life without him. Additionaly & equally as compelling is the way Jeremy is portrayed as a normal human being - faults and all. Maybe to tell us that we all can be heros! I highly reccomend this book!

This book has got to be the most beautiful dedication I have ever read, but aside from that-this biography lends to a childs ears the wonder of her Father. The man he was long before the hero he became. This is a MUST read book by all. Other books to read this Fall: Nightmares Echo,Father Joe,Running With Scissors

This book really surprised me. I was prepared for a lot of cliches about healing and 9/11, but Lyz Glick has a very different take on her experience after losing her husband Jeremy, one of the heroes of Flight 93. Books like this almost always airbrush the wrinkles out of their characters - not Glick's. She let's us see Jeremy's faults, Lyz and Jeremy's stormy relationship before they got married, and the trouble she has with some of the hero worship that came with 9/11. Her book reads very quickly, and builds suspense by telling you a little of what happened after the tragedy alternating with Jeremy and Lyz's background, so she's telling two stories at once, which come together on 9/11. (And even though you know what's coming, it's still riveting.) Some of the most effective material concerns how her daughter, Emmy, has reacted to Jeremy's death (she was only 3 months old on 9/11). I dare you to read those sections without crying! All this, and Lyz has a great sense of humor. This is a very exciting and unusual memoir, and it will stay with you long after you finish it.
