In Lost & Found, Pulitzer Prize winner Kathryn Schulz delivers a luminous meditation on love, loss, and the human condition. When she falls unexpectedly in love with the woman who would become her wife, joy arrives just as she begins to lose her beloved father.
Out of that emotional collision—grief and wonder in equal measure—Schulz crafts a narrative that’s part memoir, part philosophical reflection, and entirely unforgettable. With wit, warmth, and a remarkable eye for detail, she explores the way our lives are shaped by what we lose, what we discover, and what we hold on to.
Named one of the year’s best books by Time, The Washington Post, People, and more, Lost & Found is a soul-stirring celebration of memory, meaning, and connection.
