FOUND, WANTING WITH
NATASHA SHOLL
On Valentine’s Day, after a night of red wine and pasta and
planning for their future, Natasha Sholl and her partner Rob
went to bed. A few hours later, at the age of 27, his heart
stopped.
15 years later, Natasha has written a passionate and honest
memoir about her attempt to rebuild her life while navigating
loss and facing cultural assumptions about the ‘right way’ to
grieve. Join Natasha as she talks about her book 'Found,
Wanting', falling in love in the aftermath of loss, and what it
means to build a life in the space that death leaves.
