Packed with clarity, curiosity and courage' FELIX WHITE 'It turned on so many lights for me ... What a profoundly helpful book' KATHRYN MANNIX \u0026lt;br\u0026gt; \u0026lt;br\u0026gt; Grief does something particular when it hits you young. This book is a moving exploration of that transformative pain, from the founder of The Grief Network. \u0026lt;p\u0026gt;Rachel Wilson's mother died when Rachel was in her twenties. It felt like the definitive end of childhood, a loss that rewired her perspective on life, death, relationships and who she was as a person.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt; \u0026lt;p\u0026gt;In this book, Rachel brings together other stories of bereavement with her own, encountering people who have lost parents, siblings, partners and friends at a young age. Losing Young draws on psychological research, interviews with titans like Julia Samuel and explorations of grief in history: what happens in a time of war or pandemic, when the many grieve - or struggle to - together? How do different cultures process the end of a life differently? How can the grief of losing a parent return in strange form when one thinks about having children? What do TV and fiction get disastrously, unhelpfully wrong?\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt; \u0026lt;p\u0026gt;This is a personal and profound book about what happens when youth is reshaped by tragedy, trauma and loss. It's for anyone who mourns a lost future, who is struggling to find themselves after grief, or hopes to feel less alone.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HarperCollins Publishers Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55195903459671,"sku":"9780008508104","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0799\/4569\/5575\/files\/9780008508104.jpg?v=1790688589","url":"https:\/\/somiibooks.com\/products\/losing-young-rachel-wilson-9780008508104","provider":"Somiibooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
