Overview

This book is the personal and heartbreaking testimonial of a mother and psychologist who experienced the untimely death of her 11-year-old daughter, Gili, by a reckless driver. Unsparing in its honesty, it is written as an ongoing dialogue between the bereaved mother and her deceased daughter. Intertwined with Gili's writings and artwork, Gili's life and death unfold in tears and in laughter. Eventually, the mother steps aside and the trained counselor takes over, making observations and drawing conclusions about the process of bereavement. We witness something very important in Gili's Book as the author both describes her personal experience as a bereaved parent and presents a new theoretical model of parental bereavement.
