"At the heart of "American Widow" is the notion of Sept. 11 asa personal, rather than a national or political, tragedy, which,this achingly tender work reminds us, is exactly what it was." --LA Times
  Want to honor those who passed during 9-11? Turn off the stupiddocumentary glorifying all of those images we've seen over andover, and read this sincere account of how that fateful dayeffected one person that represents all of us.” — Aint It CoolNews
  “[A] raw, occasionally maddening, bracing graphic memoir…Unbearably moving.” — The New York Times Book Review
  “Reading it, you feel that Torres could be your friend or neighbor;she makes an epic tragedy intimate.” — Newsday
  On September 10, 2001, Eddie Torres started his dream job at CantorFitzgerald in the North Tower of the World Trade Center. The nextmorning, he said goodbye to his 7?-months-pregnant wife, Alissa,and headed out the door.
  In an instant, Alissa’s world was thrown into chaos. Forced to dealwith unimaginable challenges, Alissa suddenly found herself castinto the role of “9/11 widow,” tossed into a storm of bureaucracy,politics, patriotism, mourning, consolation, and, soon enough,motherhood.
  Beautifully and thoughtfully illustrated, American Widow is theaffecting account of one woman’s journey through shock, pain,birth, and rebirth in the aftermath of a great tragedy. It is alsothe story of a young couple’s love affair: how a Colombianimmigrant and a strong-minded New Yorker met, fell in love, andstruggled to fulfill their dreams. Above all, American Widow is atribute to the resilience of the human heart and the very personalstory of how one woman endured a very public tragedy. 　　Alissa Torres lives in New York with her family.

　　Choi is a graduate of the School of Visual Arts in New York Cityand has produced short comics as well as illustrations for The NewYork Times.
