I consider this book to be one of the most influential, important books I have ever read in my life. I have given this book to many a friend who is going through a tough time with the loss of a loved one....

Along the same vein...his book "For One More Day" is equally good, exploring mothers and sons. I gave it to Sageofages Son #1 (who we all know has had his challenges over the years...just search my posts from 2005)....he cried and slept with it under his pillow for many weeks, it is next to his computer now to see everyday .
