{"product_id":"9781442226166","title":"About Grief : Insights, Setbacks, Grace Notes, Taboos","description":"\u003cp\u003eAbout Grief is a refreshingly down-to-earth book about an issue that blindsides many people. Written in a warm and conversational way that is, at times, deeply moving, at times, surprisingly amusing, and always practical, it covers a wide range of issues facing people in grief. Marasco and Shuff have done the footwork for readers who wish to know more about this complex subject. Using a variety of sources, including books, films, 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—a format they found grieving people preferred. This is not a book written by clinicians, so there's no cold jargon. It's not a memoir of one individual's grief, so it has something for everyone. And it's not a self-peddling inspirational book. It's a wise, plain-spoken, comforting book about an intimidating topic. As one reader recently said of About Grief: \"Reading this book is like having a smart, entertaining friend around—at a time when you really need one.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rowman \u0026 Littlefield","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49646401716451,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0764\/3758\/6147\/files\/9781442226166-1.jpg?v=1788384923","url":"https:\/\/usa.kinokuniya.com\/products\/9781442226166","provider":"Books Kinokuniya USA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
