Overview

After a catastrophic car accident, Michelle Hoffmann is told she died on the way to the hospital. She spent six weeks in a coma. She remembers none of it. There was no light. No vision. No revelation. Only silence-and the unsettling knowledge that while she was gone, her life continued without her consent. Six Weeks Missing is a literary memoir about memory, survival, and the long aftermath of trauma that refuses to resolve neatly. From waking unable to walk or speak properly, to navigating adoption, fractured families, motherhood, institutional power, and false certainty, Hoffmann traces a life shaped as much by what was withheld as by what was endured. This is not a story of miracles or easy redemption. It is a precise, unsentimental examination of what happens when truth is delayed, authority is unquestioned, and identity is negotiated under pressure. Written with clarity and restraint, Six Weeks Missing explores the cost of surviving without answers-and the quiet strength required to stop waiting for them. For readers of literary memoir and creative nonfiction, this book offers an unflinching look at resilience, ambiguity, and the decision to live fully even when parts of the story remain missing.
