Description
"Wise and compassionate...a profound game-changer of a book." (Caroline Leavitt, author of Pictures of You)
Though approximately one in four pregnancies ends in miscarriage, it remains a rarely talked about, under-researched, and largely misunderstood area of women's health. This profoundly necessary book - the first comprehensive portrait of the psychological, emotional, medical, and cultural aspects of miscarriage - aims to help break that silence.
With candor, warmth, and empathy, psychotherapist Julia Bueno blends women's stories (including her own) with research and analysis, exploring the effect of pregnancy loss on women and highlighting the ways in which our society fails to effectively respond to it. The result is a galvanizing, urgent, and moving exploration of a too-often-hidden human experience, and a crucial resource for anyone struggling with - or seeking to better understand - miscarriage.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"[M]oving...a comprehensive picture of shame, grief, and other emotions that accompany such a specific trauma. The Brink of Being is also a call of action to doctors, families, and our broader society: How can we better support people who miscarry?" (Bitch Media)
"This book should be required reading for anyone who has had a miscarriage or been close to a woman who has." (The Mercury)
"Those who have been touched by miscarriage will surely find [The Brink of Being to be] a great resource outlining the emotional landscape after pregnancy loss or as a guide to better understand what a woman might be enduring." (Associated Press)

Fascinating
This content was nothing short of heartbreaking. At times the story was horrific but so so important.
The Narator, not my favourite but delivered well.
A wonderful resource for any and all as we will likely all be touched by miscarriage in our lifetimes. Thank you Julia for your honesty and bravery in.sharing this.
