Format:Paperback
My mother and I were each given our own copy of this book when my father died very suddenly ten years ago. Since then, I've sent it many people as a comfort in their bereavement.
Its selection of poems, writing and thoughts on grief were invaluable to me. So much so that, for a period of time, I carried it with me everywhere with pictures of my dad kept in the pages of the book, marking poems I particularly liked.
It may not be to everyone's taste at hard times in their lives, but this book helped me.

I was sent this book twenty-four years ago when I was widowed aged 29, I kept it by my bed and in the long and anguished nights that followed I drew huge comfort from it. I dipped into it when I couldn't sleep and I read it when I felt that no one else could possibly know what I was going through. It is published by the excellent CRUSE the charity for bereavement. I have given many copies of it to people in need and they have all I think, found something that resonates in it for them personally. Grief is a very bleak landscape and this book helps and guides one through it.

Format:Paperback
One of my close friends gave me this book after my husband died a few years ago. I read it on a daily basis in the first couple of months and found it a great source of comfort. It has a range of poems, etc which cover all aspects of bereavement. There is one piece I particularly like which describes how the dead person has 'gone into the next room, waiting for you there'. This stayed in my mind and helped me to see death as part of an ongoing cycle, not a finality. In my experience, having a chance to read about bereavement by a range of authors, helped me to deal with some of the feelings that maybe didn't come out talking to friends or family.
I have logged onto amazon today to get a copy of it for a close friend following her mother's recent death. I highly recommend it.

Not my personal choice
Out of the anthologies I have read since my father died, I found this one to be the least accessible. Not especially for the content, but the presentation. Read more
