![]() ![]() Still, his voice added to Lewis' voice produced a remarkable work worthy of consideration, especially if one is going through grief him/herself. The book questions the nature of grief, and whether. His accent does not get in the way, and even adds a small amount of charm to the narration, but at the same time, he is British and in passages that rubbed me the wrong way. A Grief Observed explores the processes which the human brain and mind undergo over the course of grieving. He reads well, adds the correct amount of emphasis where needed. Give him the benefit of the doubt and trust him as he finally concluded that he must trust Him for all outcomes. This Lewis does, but the journey is painful, and full of personal introspection. This book is a book of Faith, but in order to get there, one has to cross the chasm of Doubt. ![]() You will find yourself identifying with Lewis' travails and, hopefully, when done you will find new joy and a renewed hope at the end of the journey. I usually warn someone not to read/listen to a book if one is depressed. In the end, he reconciles himself to fate and to Fate and Faith, but the journey is long, and the days of pain numerous. ![]() Lewis spares no feelings as he lashes out at this world and the Other World for taking the one woman in his life that had made a difference. I've both read and listened to this very fine if sad tome and in both media the hurt and pain that Lewis feels on the death of his beloved H comes through in spades. ![]()
