Elaine Hewes

A Matter of Death and Life

History & Biography

“I read this book very carefully, taking notes on the things that caught my attention, gave me hope, or made me cry. I found it so helpful as I face the limitations of aging and a diminished capacity for doing the things that have, throughout my life, brought me meaning and joy. It is a book to be savored—a ‘sand mandala’ of poetic beauty to inspire the creation of our own, even in the midst of loss and death.”
