I have read half of The Year of Magical Thinking (see below for a summary and link) and I recommend it highly to those who want to learn about grief. Direct and insightful, Joan Didion gives us a rare insiders view of grieving penned by a true professional writer.
It is not a feel good book about funeral service. The funeral director comes and goes in half a page and her journey continues. (Perhaps we can learn something from this)
With the holidays fast approaching, this might make a great gift alternative for some of your clergy and caregivers.
