Description
Blindsided is a narrative memoir. The inciting incident is the tragic death of the author's son, Ethan. Mark Roser struggled to breathe when the police detective told him, "Your son was in an accident. Are you sitting down?" Media outlets around the world reported on "the freak accident" at Wheaton College, and a series of articles followed, ranging from wonderful character tributes of Ethan to hurtful claims of "his inattention" as the cause of his death. The story had several elements of interest that the media picked up on. Ethan grew up in Zimbabwe. His parents were missionaries. He was only 19, studying at Wheaton University to be a pastor. After Ethan died, Roser kept his sanity by writing, while he wrestled with questions as profound as life itself. This is what he learned.
