A propos du livre

Revue de presse

This humane and eloquent book offers valuable insight into the ways in which we suffer from, wrestle with, adapt to, and grow through loss. --Judith Viorst, author of Necessary Losses

When you are bereaved, you always need but do not always find a good friend whose expressions of sympathy are knowing, simple, unpious, unpompous, and mercifully brief. Life After Loss has this same rare combination of qualities. If you know someone who needs such support, give this book; it will actually help. --Shana Alexander, author of When She Was Bad and Very Much a Lady

When the earth opens and takes someone we love, we glimpse for an instant, but for all time, the utter fragility of life - and the hazard of loving. Those who cannot face the maximum sorrow of grief - cannot weep and remember - cannot let go, cannot move on. Nowhere is there a finer guide to loss and grief than Life After Loss. Writing with intelligence and heart and style, Volkan and Zintl have produced a classic. --Michael P. Nichols, PhD, coauthor of Family Healing: Tales of Hope and Renewal from Family Therapy
