The spectrum of grief is vast, complex and personal to the point of abject isolation. We grieve in as many ways as we love. But even in the throes of loss, when hope can be so hard to find, or to hold, poetry emerges as the companion we need to provide us with the nourishment and courage to keep going.The Book of Grief and Recovery is an essential selection of poems – from the likes of W.H. Auden, Robert Hayden, Warsan Shire, Billy Collins, Lucille Clifton and many more – to light the way to healing. Whether it’s coping with sudden bereavement, dealing with the shadow of oncoming loss, navigating the death of a parent or the loss of a pet, there is a poem for every journey with grief.This book is not a funeral but a wake: celebrating lives well-lived, lamenting lost loved ones, and reminding us that we are not alone.
