Summary
About Grief is a refreshingly matter-of-fact book about an issue that blindsides many people. Written in a warm and conversational style, it covers a wide range of issues facing people in grief. Ron Marasco and Brian Shuff have done the footwork for readers who wish to know more about this complex subject. Using a variety of sources, including books, film, music, and many hours spent talking with people in grief, the authors distill their candid insights into a series of short, single-topic essays that can be easily digested in one sitting. This is not a clinical treatment, nor a memoir. And it's not a soft-peddling inspirational book. It's a wise, plain-spoken, comforting book about an intimidating topic. (Publisher).
