Lifetime guarantee: A Journey Through Loss and Survival
Alice Bloch - 1981
In this autobiographical work, Alice Bloch explores the complex and intense bond between sisters, and powerfully recreates and examines the painful events of death, loss and separation--all lived out against the background of ordinary family dynamics.With an exquisite sensitivity of language and a strong woman-identified sensibility, Bloch goes beyond her specific experience of death and grieving to a moving exploration of the themes of survival, support, and affirmation of life. This is a book which speaks to us all.
