Description

Welcome to the club that no one wants to belong to, but so many need. Based on the author's personal experience with loss—her partner died when they were both in their twenties—Janine Kwoh uses short writings, illustrations, and creative diagrams to explore the wide range of feelings and experiences that grief can encompass. For anyone who has lost a loved one or is close to someone who is grieving, Welcome to the Grief Club is a book of comfort, connection, hope, and reassurance. It empathetically and honestly addresses aspects of grief that we experience but are not widely discussed: the variety and volatility of emotions—sadness, anger, guilt, joy, the physical symptoms of grief, and how grief isn't linear, but changes and softens over time. It affirms that there is no right or wrong way to grieve and ensures that feelings that surprise us or seem strange are often common and always valid. Humor helps us survive, and the book uses a light approach to cover powerful topics, such as the remarkably unhelpful things people say to those grieving, the ping-pong of upsetting memories, and everyday acts of resilience. This book is a companion that says, "I see you and you are not alone," from one griever to another. It is a gentle reminder to give yourself permission to grieve as much and as you need.
