Grief Dialogues: The Book harnesses the power of words to give us an unobstructed view of grief. Personal accounts of love and loss craft a powerful collection of individual stories by over 60 authors and takes readers into the innermost lives of everyday people dealing with dying, death and/or grief. From Vanessa Poster’s poem We Danced portraying the inevitable interconnection of happy and sad memories, to Ann Lovejoy’s essay When Death Comes where she shares the elegance of her mother’s death with the simple statement “I think she just died but I’m not sure” to Emma Goldman Sherman’s play Super-Death! in which a gravely ill twin brother uses his superpowers in an attempt to make his death okay for his brother.  Throw in some practical suggestions from Elizabeth Coplan, Founder of Grief Dialogues, and the research findings of Dr. Jeanne Broadbent and Katrina Taee on the impact of traumatic bereavement on a therapist's personal and professional identity and practice and the reader no longer feels alone.
