Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Forbes, Sukey (photography); Malvre, Kersti (photography) (illustrator). 1st Edition. Fine condition lavender boards with silver spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes Dedication. Illustrated with black-and-white photographs. Signed and inscribed by Sukey Forbes in thin black Sharpie at the bottom of the full title page. "When Sukey Forbes loses her six-year-old daughter, Charlotte, to a rare genetic disorder, life as she knows it is shattered. Devastated as she is, though, Forbes knows her own life is not over, and she searches for ways to both come to terms with her daughter's death and recover a full, meaningful life for herself and her family. In her journey from despair to hope and comfort, Forbes struggles with her vulnerabilities as she chafes against the emotional reserve and strict self-reliance that are the hallmarks of her distinguished New England heritage. Yet her family history is also rich with spiritual seekers - including her great-great-great grandfather Ralph Waldo Emerson and his enigmatic wife, Lidian, who also lost a child to high fever at a young age. The Forbes family archives hold records of ancestors who believed in reincarnation and studied mysticism, and apparitions have long been a familiar sight at their home on the private island of Naushon, off Cape Cod. The "afterlife" takes on a new meaning, however, after Forbes seeks out a prominent medium who connects her with Charlotte on the other side. Forbes finds reassurance that Charlotte was never truly gone but rather is on a different part of the continuum of life and death. These experiences help her overcome the austerity of her WASP upbringing and ease once more into life, aware of all it might have in store for her and determined to not just survive but thrive. The Angel in My Pocket is an empowering and enlightening look at one woman's complicated and uncommon route through grief. With unflinching honesty and hard-won wisdom, Forbes tells a powerful story of rediscovering life by discovering the afterlife, coping with the pain of loss, and recapturing the joy of living." - from the inner front jacket flap. "What do we do when the unthinkable happens? We have choices, of course. We can break, become tough, allow cynicism to seep into all our broken places. Or, as Sukey Forbes illustrates in this remarkable book, grief can kick the door wide open and let the light in. [The book] is a devastating and beautiful paean to the human spirit." - Dani Shapiro, author. "How do we bear the unbearable? In this heartbreaking book, a bereaved mother offers an unflinching account of the different ways we grieve and the different - and surprising - ways we may begin to heal." - George Howe Colt, author. "I was raised in the Boston area and this book brought back memories of my childhood. I loved the line in [the book] that says 'how important it is to let all the unimportant stuff go." - Temple Grandin, author. "If your life has ever come to a halt, if you have wondered how to want to live again, if you are looking for hope and longing for courage in the face of grief, if you seek staunch honesty and are keen to hear it from someone who knows firsthand that privilege does not protect you from pain, read this book and know that you are not alone." - Laura Munson, author. "The Angel in My Pocket is one mother's response to that most visceral question that haunts the bereaved: Where has she gone? With spiritual curiosity and tenacious love, Sukey charts a heartfelt journey that grants grief its peaceful landing on a far shore." - Nichole Bernier, author. Signed by Author(s).
