Book Description
A Grief Observed is a collection of Lewis's reflections on the experience of bereavement following the death of his wife, Joy Davidman, in 1960. The book was first published under the pseudonym N.W. Clerk as Lewis wished to avoid identification as the author. Though republished in 1963 after his death under his own name, the text still refers to his wife as "H" (her first name, which she rarely used, was Helen). The book is compiled from the four notebooks which Lewis used to vent and explore his grief. He illustrates the everyday trials of his life without Joy and explores fundamental questions of faith and theodicy. Lewis's step-son (Joy's son) Douglas Gresham points out in his 1994 introduction that the indefinite article 'a' in the title makes it clear that Lewis's grief is not the quintessential grief experience at the loss of a loved one, but one individual's perspective among countless others. The book helped inspire a 1985 television movie Shadowlands, as well as a 1993 film of the same name. Clive Staples Lewis (1898-1963) was a British novelist, poet, academic, medievalist, lay theologian and Christian apologist. He is best known for his fictional work, especially The Screwtape Letters, The Chronicles of Narnia, and The Space Trilogy, and for his non-fiction Christian apologetics, such as Mere Christianity, Miracles, and The Problem of Pain.

Book Description
The purpose of this book is to give comfort to the grieving families. This is a compilations of bible verses and inspiring quotes based on the Word of God. Comforting Words From Scripture for Mourners. Mourning a loved one is always a painful journey, perhaps painful is an understatement. When someone you dearly loved dies, you never quite get over it. You just slowly learn to go on without them. Grief is like living two lives. One where you act as though everything is alright, while the other is where your heart silently cries in sorrow and pain. Some people find the process more difficult than others, either becoming too distraught or holding too much emotion in. Focusing our mind to Jesus, helps mourners follow the normal path to healing. Although it is emotionally straining to cope with loss, it is not out of the ordinary to grieve. It is not a series of events or timelines. Some people get over the pain of losing someone quicker than others. When someone dies, it happens in a moment, but the aftermath lasts a lifetime. Grief has its own imprint, it is unique and distinctive as the person we lost.You may not know how to live through the pain as we struggle to comprehend the devastating loss, although life goes on, you realize nothing will ever be the same again.
