Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5)Two Lost Souls by Judith Fisher is a captivating and deeply emotional exploration of grief, healing, and the mysteries that transcend life and death. From the very first pages, readers are drawn into Sophie's haunting journey haunted not just by the memory of two lost pregnancies, but by the persistent voices of her unborn children that call out to her, reassuring her with the words, "We're OK, Mom.”
Sophie's search for answers-where do the souls of unborn children go? becomes the driving force of her life, leading her to return to school and immerse herself in the study of religion. As she navigates this new path, Sophie gives birth to a son and a daughter, finding both joy and new meaning, yet her obsession with the afterlife and the fate of her lost babies lingers. Her quest begins to shape not only her academic pursuits but also her relationship with her husband, Alex, who worries that Sophie can never truly move on from the past.
Fisher's writing is deeply compassionate, capturing Sophie's inner turmoil and the complexities of her relationships. As the story progresses, Sophie's role as a mother, teacher, and wife grows, but the ghosts of her past the two lost souls-never truly leave her. This tension between the present and the past gives the narrative its emotional depth, as Sophie continues to search for peace in both her spiritual journey and her family life.
The book takes a dramatic turn when Sophie faces a health crisis, leading to an unexpected and chilling moment during surgery where she flatlines, only to be revived. This pivotal moment adds layers of intrigue to the story, blurring the line between life and death in a way that will leave readers questioning everything they know about the soul and its journey.
Two Lost Souls is a beautifully written, thought-provoking tale of motherhood, loss, and the enduring power of love. The emotional stakes are high, as Sophie grapples with her need for closure, while at the same time, trying to guide her children through their own grief. Fisher's skillful storytelling will stay with readers long after the final page is turned, as they are left to contemplate the eternal questions of where we go when we leave this world, and what remains of those we've lost.
If you're looking for a book that will touch your heart, challenge your beliefs, and keep you thinking long after you've finished it, Two Lost Souls is a must-read.
