My name was Salmon, like the fish; first name, Susie. I was fourteen when I was murdered on December 6, 1973. My murderer was a man from our neighborhood. My mother liked his border flowers, and my father talked to him once about fertilizer. This is Susie Salmon. Watching from heaven, Susie sees her happy suburban family devastated by her death, isolated even from one another as they each try to cope with their terrible loss alone.

Desde mi cielo es una historia asombrosa y de extraordinaria ternura que parte de una de las pruebas más dolorosas: la pérdida de un ser querido. Pero es también un relato lleno de esperanza que nos habla del poder curativo del amor.
