Publisher Description
Penguin presents the unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Grief Works, written and read by Julia Samuel.
Death is the last taboo in our society, and grief is still profoundly misunderstood. So many of us feel awkward and uncertain around death, and shy away from talking honestly with family and friends. Grief Works is a compassionate guide that will inform and engage anyone who is grieving, from the 'expected' death of a parent to the sudden unexpected death of a small child, and provide clear advice for those seeking to comfort the bereaved.
With deeply moving case studies of real people's stories of loss, and brilliantly accessible and practical advice,Grief Works will be passed down through generations as the definitive guide for anyone who has lost a loved one, and revolutionise the way we talk about life, loss and death.
Customer Reviews
Grief Works
My mum died and although I was at peace with that, I wanted to get a sense of how we compute the grief process and so I followed a recommendation from Twitter. This book provides a series of case studies and is narrated with a level of compassion which had me smiling, crying and laughing. It is delivered in such a way to bring you into the bereaved people’s lives. I also work in the NHS and have delivered bad news before so the book gave me another view on that as well. Well done and will be recommending this to others in the future.
