For many years, debate has raged as to whether children are capable
of embarking on a true mourning process. In When a Child Grieves,
Corinne Masur provides an excellent overview of the myriad
psychoanalytic theories on the subject and demonstrates
conclusively that children can and do mourn. She describes how
children and adolescents experience grief and how the mourning
process can go awry. Dr Masur provides ample guidelines for the
evaluation and treatment of children and adolescents struggling
with their grief, alongside a multitude of clinical examples to
illustrate her salient points. One detailed and poignant case
history is returned to throughout the book, that of a
three-year-old who lost his father to suicide. This sensitive and
important work fills a void in the literature and will become a key
text for trainees and qualified psychoanalysts, psychotherapists,
clinicians, and other professionals working with bereaved children.
