Format:Paperback
I bought this book just 1 month after the tragic death of my younger brother even though I had silently sworn that I wouldn't be one of "those people" who roamed the self-help sections in book stores seeking guidance and comfort. How pleasantly surprised I was by the frankness and refreshing honesty of this book. Those of us who've lost someone close know that the last thing you need to hear from friends (or authors) is empty promises of healing and peace. Although the author's experience in the book deals primarily with the loss of a spouse, I found a multitude of information and common ground that hit home with my own confrontations with grief. Long story short, I highly recommend this book to anyone who may have lost a spouse, grandparent, sibling, child, or friend. This book prompted me to write a journal of my own experiences and thoughts during the first year after my brother's death. In doing so, I now have a measuring stick to gauge my progress and recovery. I feel I owe Stephanie Ericsson a debt of gratitude for writing this book. It literally started me on the road to peace and acceptance. The highest compliment I could pay her is that I've given the book to numerous friends who've also lost loved ones.

Every time i read this book i find something new - of all the books i bought, this is the only one that spoke the words that were in my head for me, that translated my pain, and that reflected back to me what i was going through. Honestly written, inspiring and heart breaking all at once, i cannot thank Stephanie Ericsson enough for writing this book. When your whole world ends, as mine did, i truly did find a companion when i discovered this book. It offered some comfort in the midst of the hurricane.

It surpasses any I have read on the subject. In reading Stephanie Ericsson's words I found I was not alone. She is able to explain the myriad desolate spiral of feelings associated with the loss of a spouse.

This book translates raw emotion into words.
I have read every book there is on the grief journey after the death of a spouse. This is the best. The author doesn't muddle her story with psychology and explanations. Read more
