In times of crisis, loss and suffering, how can we continue to
live with a clear mind and a peaceful heart? Can adversity offer
unexpected gifts? In this spare, translucent memoir, Edie Hartshorne
presents a collection of finely rendered vignettes that explore
these questions. Through the tragic and unexpected loss of her
eldest son, Edie is guided by music, spiritual exploration, and
a sensitivity for nature to discover her own inner strength. Her
transformational journey unfolds like a living work of art, inspiring
us to remain open to kindness and compassion even in the midst
of suffering. Within these delicately portrayed shadows of love
and death, of joy and sorrow, shines a tender light of hope, wisdom
and love.
