A deeply moving love story and grief memoir from one of Australia's most respected and longstanding public figures.

It was a warm October day when his life splintered down the middle. She was gone in a flash. Everything changed forever.

For three months, in shock at this horror, he maintained a regime of late-night walks across the city. There came a time when he had walked enough, and so he stopped.

Bring Back Yesterday is a love story, and the account of the author finding his footing again after the death of his wife, Helena.

Raw and compelling, the anecdotes and insights Bob Carr shares will resonate with anyone who has ever been in a long-term relationship or lost a much-loved partner.

'A soul-searing portrait of love and loss ... This unsparing account of a powerful man unravelled by grief is a brave gift to all who have suffered, and will suffer, the inevitable tragedy of being human.' Geraldine Brooks

'A memoir of raw and extraordinary power' David Marr

'This scorching book burns with passion and pain, but also with resilience and a defiant hope' Greg Sheridan
