'Illuminating and consoling' JULIA SAMUEL, author of GRIEF WORKS
Though approximately one in four pregnancies ends in miscarriage,
it remains a rarely talked about, under-researched, and largely
misunderstood area of women's health. This profoundly necessary
book - the first comprehensive portrait of the psychological,
emotional, medical, and cultural aspects of miscarriage - aims to
help break that silence. In this groundbreaking book,
psychotherapist Julia Bueno draws on historical and psychological
research alongside her personal story and those of people she's
helped. Straightforward and supportive, she shines a light on the
different ways that miscarriages can happen and how we might allow
for our grief, offer comfort and break the silence. ***Winner of
the British Medical Association Popular Medicine Book Award***
