520    Death. Sadness. Depression. Heartache. Pain. These are 
       words commonly used to describe the range of emotions that
       individuals experience when dealing with the loss of a 
       loved one, a chronic illness, or an unwanted life-changing
       event. Grief is often a difficult issue for people to deal
       with, and there is no right or wrong way to grieve, but 
       there are healthy ways to cope with loss. Stories of 
       Complicated Grief: A Critical Anthology is authored by 
       social work and other human service scholars who have 
       personally experienced complicated, protracted, or 
       otherwise difficult grief and who write openly about their
       experiences but also place their stories in a larger 
       academic context. This is the sense in which the book 
       constitutes a "critical anthology" and fills a void in the
       academic, clinical, and general literature. The authors in
       this volume discuss how their experiences of loss and 
       grief, though harrowing, ultimately allowed them degrees 
       of personal growth and betterment--with particular 
       emphasis on the importance of giving voice to one's 
       experience in writing. Powerful and moving as the stories 
       are in their own right, they are notable in that they all 
       highlight academic issues regarding the nature of loss and
       grief, shedding light on what it means to experience 
       complicated grief while weaving in related topics such as 
       cultural differences, stigma, shame, losses, and traumas 
       other than death. These accounts provide both clinical and
       practical insights on the nature of complicated grief for 
       practitioners, researchers, and laypeople, making Stories 
       of Complicated Grief an invaluable, unprecedented resource
       for clinicians, academics, and anyone grappling with the 
       effects of complicated grief in their own life.--Back
