A transcendent coming-of-age story about the ways a broken heart learns to love again. One summer morning, a flight takes off from New York to Los Angeles: there are 192 people aboard. When the plane suddenly crashes, twelve-year-old Edward Adler is the sole survivor. In the aftermath, Edward struggles to make sense of his grief, sudden fame and find his place in a world without his family. But then Edward and his neighbour Shay make a startling discovery; hidden in his uncle\'s garage are letters from the relatives of other passengers - all addressed him. Following the passengers\' final hours and Edward\'s unique coming-of-age, Dear Edward asks one of life\'s most profound questions: What does it mean not just to survive, but to truly live?
