The Last Time They Met
by Anita Shreve
Many years later (7/27/2023)
I thought by the ending that Linda’s death was figurative, since Linda was lost to Thomas from that point basically until coincidence brought them back together. He admits that after not receiving notes back after the accident, he could have looked harder for her. He (in some capacity) grieved and moved on. I felt very sad and figured it true that Thomas killed himself after the meeting later in life, since they implied to truly reconcile but initially Linda didn’t have any idea how to go about that. Didn’t even know how to tell her kids about him. I imagine she DID NOT die in the wreck, however he did take his own life having such grief after the loss of his daughter and not getting a Linda after all. Thoughts ?
