Ester’s Wedding

Is this the story of a wedding? A family?  Our grandmother tells her version, painting a rich tableau of a big, messy family  making a united effort to create a wedding for their sister, in spite of family tragedy. Frozen turkeys, baby’s breath, chocolate groom’s cake and too many guests are featured alongside the usual excitement of a beautiful bride.

And then, the wedding from another point of view. The emotional landscape of a moment in time, after which everything changes irrevocably.
