Grief Works is a compassionate guide that will inform and engage anyone who is grieving, from the \'expected\' death of a parent to the sudden unexpected death of a small child, and provide clear advice for those seeking to comfort the bereaved. Julia Samuel guides you gently through her eight practical pillars of strength - that include the power of saying \'no\' to the structure and building of good new habits - to support you and help you to gradually rebuild your life in the face of grief: With personal real-life stories of loss, and brilliantly accessible and practical advice, Grief Works will be passed down through generations as the definitive guide for anyone who has lost a loved one, and will revolutionise the way we talk about life, loss and death.
