Description

In the wake of the sudden death of his father, Dominican friar Br Giovanni Castellano gives a voice to the real darkness of grief: the shock, anger, guilt, numbness, and loneliness. He challenges us to speak openly about these emotions and explores where faith lies amid the desolation left by the loss of a loved one.

Free of both platitudes and judgement, this book offers hope to those who feel paralysed by grief, guiding the reader to move forward in the light of Christ’s death and resurrection, making Love possible again.
