{"product_id":"9780595366903","title":"Adrift: Poems After the Death of a Child-and Other Writings","description":"The death of a child is the greatest loss of all. Losing one's child is a non-negotiable experience that can cast one adrift in uncharted waters in a boat without anchor or rudder. Initially, one's mind is kept busy attending to necessary arrangements-but within a few days, the reality of loss sets in-and does not leave. The order of the day suddenly becomes disorder, and seeing it through is the ordeal at hand for emotional survival. \u003ci\u003eAdrift: Poems After the Death of a Child\u003c\/i\u003e was my attempt to sort things out in poetry after the death of our son John. It is story of loss, heartrending sadness, and somber remembrance of our son; and yet, it is a story in poems that, in the telling, helps me to get through the trial. I hope that my story helps all who suffer the greatest loss of all.","brand":"iUniverse, Incorporated","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48466370724081,"sku":"9780595366903","price":11.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/5433\/7265\/files\/9780595366903_p0.jpg?v=1785642223","url":"https:\/\/shop.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780595366903","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
