"I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANOTHER BOOK LIKE IT"

Wendelien McNicoll • Jan 07, 2020

A message from a reader

A recent reader of Surviving the Tsunami of Grief was kind enough to send us her thoughts about how the book is helping and inspiring her:

"I have never seen another book like it, it is magnificent, poignant and utterly unique.  I love the way you've set out each section and chapters, it feels very natural and the illustrations are beautiful and evocative of each stage of the tsunami of grief.  What a great job you've done!  It is remarkable how you have condensed all these complex thoughts and emotions, especially the ones we may be ashamed to admit to ourselves and others.  Any other book would try to describe everything through lengthy narratives and probably fail to capture the essence of grief, but the path you've chosen, I feel is so much more effective because it is raw and it is human, not requiring explanation or interpretation.  

Every reader will find the statements of grief that mirror their own and fine solace and comfort in the words within the book.  This book has become precious to me from the moment I started reading it.  I cannot thank you enough."   Coralie

We are so grateful to Coralie for sharing her thoughts.  We wrote this book with this very intention - helping those along their own journey of grief.  If you are grieving and looking for support you can buy our book here and review our list of other useful resources.
