Packed with clarity, curiosity and courage' FELIX WHITE'It turned on so many lights for me ... What a profoundly helpful book' KATHRYN MANNIX  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.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.  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?  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.","brand":"Book Grocer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48323536355482,"sku":"9780008502331","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0558\/1625\/7690\/files\/9780008502331-us-300.jpg?v=1781495408","url":"https:\/\/castlebooks.com.au\/products\/9780008502331-losing-young-how-to-grieve-when-your-life-is-just-beginning","provider":"Castlebooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
