Written by Juliet Rosenfeld, a psychotherapist who lost her husband to lung cancer just seven months into their marriage, the book challenges everything she thought she knew about death.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs she navigates her own devastating experience of loss, Rosenfeld turns to Freud's seminal essay \"Mourning and Melancholia\" for inspiration. Drawing a distinction between the immediate trauma of loss and the longer, unpredictable evolution of that loss into something called mourning, Rosenfeld rethinks the commonly held therapeutic idea of working through stages of grief.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough her writing, Rosenfeld explores what it means to invest love and how to find one's own path after bereavement in order to continue living. The book is beautifully written, offering a meditation on the meaning of love and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of loss. It is a must-read for anyone who has experienced grief or is seeking to understand the complexities of mourning and healing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 256g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 133 x 197 x 27 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781780725444\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Juliet Rosenfeld","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44100208328954,"sku":"9781780725444","price":9.27,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646249785520_book.jpg?v=1646932993","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-state-of-disbelief-a-therapists-story-of-love-death-and-mourning-9781780725444","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
