About this title

Synopsis

This book is a lighthouse, a pole star for those who grieve and especially for parents who have lost a child or children.

"It is a beautiful guide through the process of grief, of realizing that your loved one is now living through you, that everybody you’ve ever loved is part of the fabric of your being. It is a message for everyone, wherever you are on the journey."

"In this luminous collection of words and images, beauty collides with beauty and everything changes. Our shattered heart is remade. Our longing for the sacred simultaneously burns brighter and settles into our cells, integrating the whole of our being."

"In this beautiful and moving book, four mothers who’ve lost their children join hands in an artistic collaboration that invites all who grieve into their healing circle. Their invitation came my way in a time of personal grief, and the words and images they offer here helped me take first steps toward “the peace that passes all understanding.” At a moment when heartbreak might have taken me down, the spirit that infuses this book helped me find a way forward: my heart is breaking open toward larger life, not in spite of my grief but because of it."

"This book is medicinal, a healing salve for the shattered heart. When grief arrives at our door, we are asked to not simply endure our times in the shadowed terrain of loss but to also engage the difficult and powerful energies found there. Those who find the courage to do so, are remade during this long season of descent. They gain a second sight that enables them to see beauty in the darkness. Beneath All Appearances: an unwavering peace is a gift brought back by four women who have returned from their sojourn into the holy grotto of sorrow. This is a sacred text."
