In each of these people the woman finds a common need: the urge to talk about themselves and to have an audience to their experiences. The narrator orchestrates this chorus of voices for the most part as a passive listener, until one of them makes an extraordinary request, drawing her into an intense and transformative experience of her own.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In \u003ci\u003eWhat Are You Going Through\u003c\/i\u003e, Nunez brings wisdom, humor, and insight to a novel about human connection and the changing nature of relationships in our times. A surprising story about empathy and the unusual ways one person can help another through hardship, her book offers a moving and provocative portrait of the way we live now.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch4\u003eAutorenportrait\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSigrid Nunez\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of the novels \u003ci\u003eA Feather on the Breath of God\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Last of Her Kind\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Friend\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eWhat Are You Going Through\u003c\/i\u003e, among others.
