Synopsis

To experience the death of someone you love is to come close to dying yourself. Doctors and nurses and ministers can help and guide, but only the person who has known the painful gaping hole the death of a loved one leaves, has any conception of reality. With great honesty and sensitivity, Isabella Taves explores the whole subject of bereavement and grief. She tells what she and others have discovered: that in our society there is little time for the grieving person; that you cannot deny the fact of death or you destroy yourself; that you can only erase pain by facing it steadily and patiently. And she tells how she learned that you must spend your grief and anger at the blow struck you and only then can you find peace. For life must be savored. Love must not be wasted.
