Friendship by the Book – When A Friend Dies
There have been many prior posts on The Friendship Blog about the pain of losing a close friend but the tragedy of losing a friend to suicide is especially haunting.
In her new book, The Guardians: An Elegy, award-winning writer Sarah Manguso has crafted a beautiful story to help her understand and better cope with the death of her friend, Harris. You may want to take a look at my review of this excellent book on the NBC Universal website, Life Goes Strong.
