Notes
Description
"The soul in grief reaches out, questioning and in pain. In these short, lyrical reflections, Nessa Rapoport accompanies the reader into the very heart of loss." "Who among us has not suffered the loss of a grandparent, a friend, someone we love? Other losses - of a parent, a child, our youth, a part of ourselves to cancer - are all possible and imaginable; some are inevitable. Always, we hope for a companion to say what we cannot, whether in rage or in consolation." "Nessa Rapoport gives voice to the anger, courage, indignation, and solitude of grief. Distilling her own experience, and with empathy for others' suffering, she offers a refuge from anguish and a tribute to the many ways we rediscover strength, particularly in the comfort of women's friendship." "Through the solace of words, grief is first acknowledged, and then healed. These pieces leave space for our own lives and memories, while showing us that we are not alone. Women - and men - will turn to A Woman's Book of Grieving again and again for the beauty of its language and its manifest wisdom."--BOOK JACKET.
