The Last Funny Thing

Gary Cammish has spent two years talking to his dead wife.Denise is not a ghost. She is the voice Gary carries inside his head: sharp, funny, impatient, and always ready with the answer he does not want to hear. He knows exactly what she would say because, after fifteen years of marriage, he knew her better than anyone.Or so he thinks.When Denise says something she could not possibly know, Gary begins to question the version of her he has preserved. As he tests old memories, revisits the road where she died, and searches through the life she left behind, he discovers how easily remembrance can become invention-and how dangerous it can be to uncover the truth about someone who is no longer there to defend it.Darkly funny, deeply moving and quietly unsettling, The Last Funny Thing is a psychological mystery about grief, guilt, and the stories we tell ourselves to keep the people we love alive.Because memory changes.And sometimes, it talks back.
