He lives with his cat in a small, gray town. His job is to offer people comfort in their final hours of life, which he does without complaint or judgement. He’s stoic, gentle, and a little naive, despite who he is, but he never tries to change anyone’s fate. He is responsible for maintaining the balance of nature, and every life must eventually end.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThen Travis meets Dalia, a midwife, and her boisterous eight-year-old daughter Layla, who live across the hall, and despite his best attempts to keep his distance, he finds himself wholeheartedly embraced by other people for the first time. So it is with this seemingly unremarkable family that Travis begins to understand what it means to be truly alive—and what might be irrevocably lost in death.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Friends of the Mill Valley Library","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53064765341927,"sku":null,"price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/3397\/3991\/files\/41Qkl3Sk59L.webp?v=1794610236","url":"https:\/\/friendsmvl.org\/products\/everything-was-beautiful-and-nothing-hurt-hc","provider":"Friends of the Mill Valley Library","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
