A debut author pays tribute to his deceased wife in this memoir. The prose style is sometimes stilted and other times histrionic. However, it occasionally achieves moments of quiet lyricism, as a result, it doesn't have much to teach readers about how to get over a loss. Rather, it's a raw document of the middle of grief and all the emotions that come with it. An emotional elegy that's somewhat undisciplined in style. - Kirkus Reviews When a loved one dies, the grief can be overwhelming. For some survivors, this grief manifests in all different manners of behaviors in an effort to keep the memory of that lost loved one alive. For Mr. Berry, in the aftermath of the death of his beloved wife of 41 years, it manifested in him writing this loving tribute, My Connie. - Pacific Book Review In 2015, author Pradeep Berry lost his wife of 41 years. His new memoir, however, isn't an account of moving through grief to healing; rather, it's a repository of his pain. Like a personal journal, its entries reflect his roller-coaster emotional state, recurrent thoughts about his wife's death and grief-stricken lamentations. - BlueInk Review My Connie is a heartfelt, if repetitive, account of a husband's grief. - Foreword Reviews
