Product Description

Product Description

  • Top 250 book on Amazon, September 2012
The five women sitting in the circle of chairs all had great dreams of motherhood.

Then their babies died.

Melinda sees blood on the floor every day after her loss. Dot believes the wrath of God caused her baby to die.

Teenage Tina is trolling internet dating sites for a father for another baby, and Janet's failure to cry means her wedding is off. Stella, the support group leader, must help them while facing the old choices that cost her ever having a family of her own.

Based on the stories of dozens of real survivors, Baby Dust is a moving tribute to the strength of mothers who must endure this impossible loss.

4.0 out of 5 stars Worth reading if you want a place to be with other women who have suffered miscarriage 13 Feb 2012
By FeeB
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
While this isn't great literature, it's a good read and I found it particularly comforting to be in the presence of other women who have suffered miscarriage.

I bought it after I suffered my second miscarriage in three months and was in a really grim place. People were great after the first miscarriage but after the second, they just didn't know how to speak to me so I needed to be with other women who were telling me their story and where I wouldn't feel so alone. There are some gruesome descriptions in the book and readers may feel the need to put it down and have a little cry (I did!) because it may evoke painful memories. Readers may also recognise some of the crass ways the medical profession treat women who are going through miscarriage and the author has drawn on the experience of hundreds of women to craft these details into her book.

When I had finished reading it, I felt very comforted and more hopeful than I had in weeks. Perhaps the most poignant part is in the last few pages. Read it and you'll see what I mean.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you've had a miscarriage, read this book 18 Sep 2011
By Harvey
Format:Paperback
My wife read this book and this review is from her . . . . This is a novel about a number of women that have had miscarriages. It is a sad read but also a very good one if you have experienced miscarriage and if you haven't it gives a real understanding of how upsetting it can be. Wonderfully written and well worth the read, wonderful author.
