Produktbeschreibung
You will cry Beg and ask why As the Lady of Death Saunters closely by . . . Here is an epic poem like no other. Written in real time, it is a narrative of mediumship, a work of automatic writing that befell Catherine Harford as she was forced to wade through the immediate aftermath of grief following the sudden death of her father. Isolated and alone, she was offered little choice but to shoulder the shock and enormity of this experience whilst pushing through and caring for her young family. But the toll it took drove her to the brink of sanity. This fascinating account of the grieving process is made all the more acute by the context in which it is pitted, that of the modern-day existence. Is there time to grieve anymore? Harford begs the question, as the demands of modern life threaten to extinguish the very real space of humanity into which we are all drawn, at some point in our lives, when we are touched by death. Both a private expose and a cultural marker, this epic poem breaks new ground, and takes the reader on a journey that is both frightening and real, with surprising twists and turns as this body of spirit writing offers insight into history and the future in ways that are completely unexpected. Discover the heart of deep sorrow, as you take the hands of angels and explore the realm of death, in "One Day to Grieve".
