Owusu begins her memoir by describing the day her father died. She was just a child at the time, and she didn't fully understand what had happened. In the years that followed, she struggled to come to terms with her father's death. She felt lost and alone, and she didn't know how to move on.

As Owusu grew older, she began to explore her grief through writing. She wrote poems and essays about her father, and she found that writing helped her to process her emotions and make sense of her loss. Eventually, she decided to write a memoir about her experiences. She wanted to share her story with others who had also experienced loss, and she wanted to help them feel less alone.

Aftershocks is a beautifully written and deeply resonant memoir. Owusu's writing is both honest and vulnerable, and she captures the complexities of grief and loss with stunning precision. Aftershocks is a must-read for anyone who has ever experienced loss, and it is a powerful reminder that we are not alone in our grief.
