Download or read book Modern Loss written by Rebecca Soffer and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2018-01-23 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspired by the website that the New York Times hailed as "redefining mourning," this book is a fresh and irreverent examination into navigating grief and resilience in the age of social media, offering comfort and community for coping with the mess of loss through candid original essays from a variety of voices, accompanied by gorgeous two-color illustrations and wry infographics. At a time when we mourn public figures and national tragedies with hashtags, where intimate posts about loss go viral and we receive automated birthday reminders for dead friends, it’s clear we are navigating new terrain without a road map. Let’s face it: most of us have always had a difficult time talking about death and sharing our grief. We’re awkward and uncertain; we avoid, ignore, or even deny feelings of sadness; we offer platitudes; we send sympathy bouquets whittled out of fruit. Enter Rebecca Soffer and Gabrielle Birkner, who can help us do better. Each having lost parents as young adults, they co-founded Modern Loss, responding to a need to change the dialogue around the messy experience of grief. Now, in this wise and often funny book, they offer the insights of the Modern Loss community to help us cry, laugh, grieve, identify, and—above all—empathize. Soffer and Birkner, along with forty guest contributors including Lucy Kalanithi, singer Amanda Palmer, and CNN’s Brian Stelter, reveal their own stories on a wide range of topics including triggers, sex, secrets, and inheritance. Accompanied by beautiful hand-drawn illustrations and witty "how to" cartoons, each contribution provides a unique perspective on loss as well as a remarkable life-affirming message. Brutally honest and inspiring, Modern Loss invites us to talk intimately and humorously about grief, helping us confront the humanity (and mortality) we all share. Beginners welcome.

Download or read book Thanksgiving written by Eugene Narrett and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-12 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eugene Narrett has been involved in some of the most turbulent and culture-shaping events of our era from the massive peace demonstrations and student uprisings of the late 1960s, to the art and film worlds in NYC and Boston, to the changing waters of postmodern Academia; to activism for fathers, true liberalism and for Israel. This Memoir organizes itself around traumatic experiences of bereavement and injustice and persistent hope. Shining through the punitive and shocking changes in his life and society, the narrative is suffused with reflections on creativity, regret and love: his love for his parent's place in Vermont, for the garden he created; for teaching; for the adventures and accomplishments of youth and, above all, for his son. This narrative is intriguing in its varied palette of events and dynamism; in its vividly evoked memories of special places, events and people; above all in the love for a child and home. The warmth of this love enfolds the loss and challenges. Thanksgiving is the tale of a creator and survivor. Read it for its glimpses of history, meditations on memory and trauma, and for its heart. "In this fascinating and passionate memoir, Dr. Narrett, one of today's most original commentators on culture and literature describes his life through a series of vignettes which powerfully delineate the deep cultural changes of recent decades." --- D. M. Lerner, PhD
