Böcker av Carole Stone

A portrait of marriage, caretaking, grief, and recovery. Carole Stone's Limited Editions is an end-of-life narrative journey, from her long-term marriage to the illness and death of her husband. Stone's honest, understated, and detailed poems, each packed with narrative, bring us to the heart of her loss. Stone does not flinch in her descriptions of her husband's suffering and dying moments. She dispassionately describes the everyday details of coping with being on her own--from daily household chores to the loneliness of being single as an aging woman. With Stone's crisp observations and raw honesty, Limited Editions challenges the reader to think about death, grief, widowhood, and aging as a natural process in the life cycle.

With more than 14,000 entries in her electronic address book, Carole Stone is a self-confessed people addict who has turned networking and making friends into an art form.

According to a recent survey, social anxiety and shyness are on the increase. This is as relevant to the retired widow as it is to the ambitious young business executive. This book is a collection of the key things all of us need to know in order to go about our daily and business lives with confidence.
