What does it mean to grieve a child lost to an act of terrorism?
This book offers a powerful and deeply human exploration of traumatic bereavement, grounded in parents' first-hand accounts of losing a child to political violence. Drawing on research in France, the book explores how such loss disrupts meaning, time and self. Through a phenomenological lens, it challenges clinical views of grief and trauma, revealing how parents resist closure and seek enduring bonds with the deceased.
This is a compelling interdisciplinary study of love, memory and making meaning in the wake of unthinkable tragedy.
