Kadian Journal

In July 2012 Thomas Harding''s fourteen-year-old son Kadian was killed in a bicycle accident. Shortly afterwards Thomas began to write. This book is the result.Beginning on the day of Kadian''s death and continuing to the one-year anniversary and beyond Kadian Journal is a record of grief in its rawest form and of a mind in shock and questioning a strange new reality. Interspersed within the journal are fragments of memory: jewel-bright everyday moments that slowly combine to form a biography of a lost son and a lost life.Kadian Journal is a document of startling bravery and candour—a description of a family dislocated and united by tragedy and a beautiful and moving tribute to a son.
