Kathleen Horan, a reporter at WNYC, founded relationshipobit.com when after a difficult breakup with her boyfriend, her father passed away two weeks later. As she was writing her father's obituary, Kathleen recognized how helpful it was to have a place to celebrate that life, recognise the survivors, and put things to rest. She began to wonder what it would be like to write another obituary - this time for the death of her relationship. How it would be remembered. Cause of death. Surivors (if any). Date of birth and the date it breathed it's last. Thus "Relationship Obits" was born. "Relationship Obits" is more than just a book for people who've been burned by love (although who hasn't). It's a celebration of love, a recognition that we all go through the end of relationships and just as much as love is a huge part of life, so is loss of that love.

"REST in peace, dead relationships. A new book called -- what else? - 'Relationship Obits' is here to serve as the perfect not-so-subtle hint to give to that moping, weeping friend who just can't seem to get over That One Ex." -- New York Post "A bittersweet testament to the beauty and trasience of love." -- The Sunday Times "A potent repository for readers' stories of love lost, captured in achingly or hilariously sincere tributes...The intimate (and omitted) details render these accounts heartbreaking and identifiable, each with the cathartic ring of long-held feelings finally released-or at least acknowledged-in concrete terms." -- Publishers Weekly "Poignant, clever, and sardonic." -- New Orleans Times-Picayune
