520 A man whose wife was killed in the November 13, 2015
Bataclan Theater attack in Paris, and whose open letter to
the killers went viral on Facebook, provides a memoir of
how he and his baby son endured after losing the most
important woman in their lives.
520 "#1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER "On Friday night you stole
the life of an exceptional person, the love of my life,
the mother of my son, but you will not have my hate." On
November 13, 2015, Antoine Leiris's wife, Helene Muyal-
Leiris, was killed by terrorists while attending a rock
concert at the Bataclan Theater in Paris, in the deadliest
attack on France since World War II. Three days later,
Leiris wrote an open letter addressed directly to his
wife's killers, which he posted on Facebook. He refused to
be cowed or to let his seventeen-month-old son's life be
defined by Helene's murder. He refused to let the killers
have their way:"For as long as he lives, this little boy
will insult you with his happiness and freedom." Instantly,
that short Facebook post caught fire, and was reported on
by newspapers and television stations all over the world.
In his determination to honor the memory of his wife, he
became an international hero to everyone searching
desperately for a way to deal with the horror of the Paris
attacks and the grim shadow cast today by the threat of
terrorism. Now Leiris tells the full story of his grief
and struggle. You Will Not Have My Hate is a remarkable,
heartbreaking, and, indeed, beautiful memoir of how he and
his baby son, Melvil, endured in the days and weeks after
Helene's murder. With absolute emotional courage and
openness, he somehow finds a way to answer that impossible
question: how can I go on? He visits Helene's body at the
morgue, has to tell Melvil that Mommy will not be coming
home, and buries the woman he had planned to spend the
rest of his life with. Leiris's grief is terrible, but his
love for his family is indomitable. This is the rare and
unforgettable testimony of a survivor, and a universal
message of hope and resilience. Leiris confronts an
incomprehensible pain with a humbling generosity and
grandeur of spirit. He is a guiding star for us all in
these perilous times. His message--hate will be vanquished
by love--is eternal"--|cProvided by publisher.
