In each of these people the woman finds a common need: the urge to talk about themselves and to have an audience to their experiences. The narrator orchestrates this chorus of voices for the most part as a passive listener, until one of them makes an extraordinary request, drawing her into an intense and transformative experience of her own.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eWhat Are You Going Through\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, Nunez brings wisdom, humor, and insight to a novel about human connection and the changing nature of relationships in our times.
