Description

Each and every so frequently we encounter a story that makes us cry and makes us strong, that makes us wish to hug our children and call our old friends. This bestselling book captures just one of these drama in all its heartrending drama.

On January 19, 2000, a fire raged through a Seton Hall dormitory, killing three students and injuring 58 others. Some of the sufferers were Shawn Simons and Alvaro Llanos, roommates from poor neighborhoods who had made their families proud by getting into college.

After the Fire is the story of Shawn and Alvaro’s fight to recuperate from the worst damage St. Barnabas Hospital’s burn unit had ever seen. It’s the story of doctors and nurses who work with those terribly touched by fire. It’s the story of moms and dads, of faith and circle of relatives. And It’s the story of the women who loved these men, who knew that real beauty is a thing not seen in mirrors.
