"The word 'grief' comes from the old French word greve which means heavy burden. The idea is that grief weighs you down with sorrow and a lot of other emotions. I feel that way: heavier, like I have to drag myself around, like everything is effort, is dark and crap. It's as though my head is continually filled with thoughts I'd never had before, which gives me a headache."
A slow (but necessarily so) start, but once she found the book things really revved up into a great, tense family mystery that unwound at a great pace without leaving things feeling rushed or unfinished; make sure you make time to read the last 1/3 in one sitting, because you're not going to want to put it down.
"I occasionally tripped on a raised root, and was caught each time by a helpfully placed tree trunk. The trees did that, tripped me and caught me, tickled me with their leaves and webs, and smacked me in the face with their branches."
"I've heard people say that when they dream about a loved one that has died, they feel that it's real, that the person is really there, sending them a message, giving them a hug. That somehow dreams are a blurred line between here and there, like a meeting room in a prison. You're both in the same room, yet on different sides and in different worlds."
