One story. Two endings. Genuine and fictional. Which ending is yours?
What
do you say to someone who is dying? And what do you say when that
someone can't understand a word you are saying? How do you comfort each
other throughout... and beyond?
My love, if you go away in
a few days, the world will lose its colors and darken like the land of
Mordor. If you go away and leave me to wander aimlessly, alone in this
sea become wild, like a ship with a broken rudder and drowned sailors,
and if I don't find comfort in the warmth of your body, clutched in my
embrace at the end of the day, I'm afraid I won't survive.
"I
don't regret anything. Marcel was not only my cat, he was my
everything. My brother, my friend, my world shrank in a soft
gray-striped furry ball."—Bernard Jan
Powerful. Emotional. Honest.
A heartfelt and moving novella.

A World Without Color
A True Story Of the Last Three Days With My Cat
by Bernard Jan

Saying good-bye and “putting down” a pet who is suffering is one of the greatest nightmares a person can face. Is it really time? What if….what if…what if…???? After the “deed” is done, the guilt is overwhelming, the grief is like acid and the empty hole in one’s heart is horrendous.
Bernard Jan’s A WORLD WITHOUT COLOR: A TRUE STORY OF THE LAST THREE DAYS WITH MY CAT is the true story of the last painful days of his cat and friend, Marcelle’s life. Mr. Jan finished his story with two endings, one the truth, one, ‘what if’ in the imaginings of anyone who would do anything to undo the loss they face.
Short, powerful, honest and heart-wrenching, Bernard Jan has only written what most of us cannot express, the pain of the loss of a pet. That pain is real and it can crush the soul. Beautifully written, in just a few words, Bernard Jan has given voice to everyone who has experienced his same loss.
I received this copy from Bernard Jan in exchange for my honest review.
