Customer Reviews

very healing anthology

I found this book when my mother died 12 years ago at age 59. It's an amazing anthology of first-person accounts of losing mom. They are divided into loss of mother as a child, loss after estrangement, etc. There are real people's stories of everything from doing mom's hair for burial to all-women pall bearers. It is very real and heartfelt. It helped me grieve and find a place to carry my mother with me throughout the rest of my life. Highly recommended.
