What They're Saying
Critics Review
“An elegant book … that lets readers know they aren’t alone.”—Wall Street Journal “Mesmerizing. Cobb is down to earth, funny, disturbingly direct.”—Detroit Free Press “An eloquent book. Cobb’s harrowing insistence that death be confronted without the veil of denial is made possible, and even more starkly compelling, by the grace and wit of her writing.” —Kay Redfield Jamison, author of An Unquiet Mind
