Life and Loss in the Pandemic

'The 2020/21 pandemic has caused huge disruption to the flow and structure of daily life. Dr. Penny Rawson's book is an invaluable and accessible resource for anyone trying to make sense of it all. It encourages the reader to integrate into our post-Covid lives both the positives and negatives of the pandemic experience.'

Rt. Rev. Christopher Budd, Bishop Emeritus of Plymouth




This book gives words to what many are feeling as we mourn the loss of so many aspects of 'normal' life and stresses the normality of the grieving process. The Pandemic has confronted us all with death and what life is all about. Dr. Rawson reflects on some of these existential questions. She brings to this her extensive experience in the therapy field and an interest in the spiritual dimension. It is a book for everyone including academics or clerics. Enlightening and thought provoking.




'Superb. It is much needed. Read it!'
