| Summary, etc. |
No one teaches us how to die ... or how to nurture those we love who are dying. Now this exquisite and helpful book captures and crystallizes the profound emotions surrounding death. In this treasure of life-affirming passages, over forty celebrated writers, thinkers, and religious figures from different faiths speak eloquently on the nature of dying and to those whom death leaves behind. Some offer common wisdom that, shared in time of need, becomes illuminating. Others provide solace and assurance that the healing process has no timetable. From Margaret Mead and Elisabeth Kübler-Ross to Dylan Thomas and Mark Twain to the poignant testimony of a concentration camp survivor, here are sage reflections that shed light on our darkest hours and sign the eternal human spirit. |
