Non-Death Loss and Grief offers an inclusive perspective on loss and grief, exploring recent research, clinical applications, and current thinking on non-death losses and the unique features of the grieving process that accompany them.The book places an overarching focus on the losses that we encounter in everyday life, and the role of these loss experiences in shaping us as we continue living. A main emphasis is the importance of having words to accurately express these ‘living losses’, such as loss of communication with a loved one due to disease or trauma, which are often not acknowledged for the depth of their impact. Chapters showcase a wide range of contributions from international leaders in the field and explore individual perspectives on loss as well as experiences that are more interpersonal and sociopolitical in nature.Illustrated by case studies and clinical examples throughout, this is a highly relevant text for clinicians looking to enhance their support of those living with ongoing loss and grief.

In her early 20Â’s, Catherine Renfro received a phone call no one should have. In broken hopelessness, her brother, Barrett, called out with despair before taking his own life. She and her father would rush over to his home only to find out that he was no longer with them. Catherine went through a season of grief that hundreds of thousands of people endure every year in America. But even in the midst of anger, depression, and guilt, she would say that Christ never left her. In Hope, Hurt, and Healing, Catherine Renfro addresses the reality of loss, the feeling of brokenness, the guilt of living on while also pointing to the hope of the gospel, the peace of relying on Christ, and the trusting in God even during the broken seasons. She offers a real look at suicide loss, but she does not simply live in the despair. Instead, she uses her own life to point people to Christ and lean on his goodness to discover hope for the present and healing for the future. Â

The Impossible Return – Psychoanalytic Reflections on Breast Cancer, Loss, and Mourning is a work of creative non-fiction and auto-theory. It is part cancer memoir, part psychoanalytic theorizing, and part history of late-Soviet Ukraine.Anna Fishzon’s personal narrative is interspersed with interludes exploring other “reconstructions” (Chernobyl’s sarcophagus, the perestroika years) as well as psychoanalytic reflections on anxiety, prosthesis, hypochondria, and tattooing. The authorial voice is intentionally polyphonic: elegiac, humorous, at times academic and philosophical. Each chapter is set in the context of the writing process, with discussion of the Covid-19 pandemic and war in Ukraine. The prologue examines the psychoanalyst’s bodily presence in treatment and includes clinical vignettes illustrating the impact of remote therapy sessions during lockdown, and an epilogue provides a meditation on repetition compulsion and the impossibility of mourning fully.Through theoretical and personal reflections on mourning and recovery after catastrophic collapses of psyche, body, and place, the book makes original contributions to psychoanalysis, Slavic and cultural studies, trauma studies, film criticism, and history. This unique work will be relevant to readers interested in psychoanalytic studies, cancer and disability studies and critical theory, and academics of auto-theory and memoir.
