In this poignant and unabashed self-examination, Seema Reza uncovers the lessons she learned through motherhood and a failed marriage, and how she used her discoveries to make a meaningful difference in the world.
When the World Breaks Open is a non-linear narrative memoir that traces Seema Rezas journey from being a suburban mom to using her own lessons to build a unique writing and art program in military hospitals. Reza exposes her triumphs and fears and regret through the dissolution of a dysfunctional marriage, and investigates her own experiences and societal attitudes towards loss, love, motherhood and community, undermining the idea that strength requires silence. There is a revelatory quality to the writing, as Reza exposes her own weaknesses and regrets and investigates their sources. As she wonders, she displays a trust in the intelligence of the reader, providing space to explore these themes alongside her, inviting both identification and immersion.
