  Jemima Atar first experienced the unfolding of her complex narrative when she began exploring her life with the help of her therapist. Throughout the turmoil that characterised facing up to the truth of painful childhood trauma, Jemima’s therapist was her steadfast anchor, providing safety and support. But when he suddenly had to terminate the sessions after almost two years, Jemima found herself thrown into the depths of unfamiliar, isolating, misunderstood Grief. 
  In this personal memoir, the author continues her narrative without her therapist, letting the Grief process take the reins. Grief and Her Narrative explores a particular form of loss that is not commonly addressed in psychotherapeutic fields or elsewhere, and candidly asks the reader to be involved in asking questions, many of which have no clear answers. Through an exploration of both the common and the unique features of Jemima’s grief, this authentic memoir offers connection to readers seeking to understand their own multifaceted experiences, and invites those in the field of psychotherapy to join this neglected discussion. 
  What began as a form of therapeutic self-expression and creative rebuilding, expanded into a valuable and sensitively written work which documents grief in all its forms. The book reaches out to anyone experiencing bereavement, hopelessness, uncertainty, trauma, or suffering of any sort, and to those who simply wish to gain insight into a personal journey of recovery.

  Growing up in a prosperous neighborhood, B. Morrison was taught that poverty was a product of laziness and public assistance programs only rewarded irresponsibility. However, when her marriage soured, she abruptly found herself an impoverished single mother. Disowned by her parents and facing destitution for herself and her two small sons, she was forced to accept the handout so disdained by her parents and their world: welfare. This dramatic memoir tells how one woman finds and grasps the lifeline that ultimately enables her to become independent. Innocent offers a powerful personal narrative on important social issues. Part coming-of-age story and part immersion in a different culture, this book puts a human face on poverty.

  Boaboa - pronounced ‘Bow-a-Bow-a’ - is the name given to a real tree—the Baobab—that imparts wisdom to a growing child in a South African garden. This stirring memoir traverses Africa and Australia following the Speer-Jordan family, who fled persecution and poverty in Varniai, Lithuania, to South Africa. The political machinations they witnessed in that time in South Africa changed the women forever in this unusual family. As the story unfolds, Isabella and Franceska’s tenacity and courage surface as they prove to be hardy and, at times, seemingly indestructible with their strong roots.Under The Boab Tree is a tale about the souls of these women connecting to the people they meet—like Princess Yasmin Aga Khan, Rita Hayworth’s daughter—and the richness of their hearts. The mother and daughter’s spiritual, political, and humanitarian awakenings in this chronicle give them power and purpose in finding truth and justice for others and themselves through adversity. This is a story about how Isabella and Franceska came to a place of acceptance and stillness, finding their ultimate saviour: love. A love that unravels and transcends exploitation and fear.
