Each of us will die. Of greater consequence is the fact that each and every one of us will watch helplessly as one we love dies. There is no escape; no pardon. We will be called upon to face the inevitable, and no amount of optimism, escapism, or avoidance will forestall Death. A Love Eternal is a very special book in that it addresses the subject of death and its attending consequences with compassion, understanding, tenderness, and reason. While written from one heart to a myriad of others, it does not neglect intellect. It is truly a masterful and compelling affirmation of love's ability to triumph and transcend the grave, grief, loneliness, and sorrow.
Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
A Love Eternal is a very rare book, for while the scope of its subject matter is universal, in that it is germane to every man, woman, and child, it neither ignores the simplicity of the child nor fails to challenge the intellect of the scholar. Each and every word has been carefully selected to impart a specific meaning, yet beneath the surface lie subterranean caverns and catacombs constructed of metaphor and allegory which yield a labyrinth not soon exhausted. To fully plumb these depths would require a lifetime. It is a book that must be read and reread; a book that will never succumb to obsolescence; a book that will never fail to comfort and console all who grieve. -- From the publisher

As a publisher, I am privileged to read many fine manuscripts. Unfortunately, as a result of economics, few are ever brought to print. A Love Eternal is a very rare book, for while the scope of its subject matter is universal, in that it is germane to every man, woman, and child, it neither ignores the simplicity of the child nor fails to challenge the intellect of the scholar. Each and every word has been carefully selected to impart a specific meaning, yet beneath the surface lie subterranean caverns and catacombs constructed of metaphor and allegory which yield a labyrinth not soon exhausted. To fully plumb these depths would require a lifetime. It is a book that must be read and reread; a book that will never succumb to obsolescence; a book that will never fail to comfort and console all who grieve.

A light in the darkness; hope midst despair.,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Love Eternal (Paperback)
I have never been touched by anything as I have by A Love Eternal. It was a Godsend to me. I recently lost my wife to cancer; such a gentle soul and so very young. She died in my arms. It was as though everything written in this book came from my own heart; as though the author knew just how I felt. You will never know just how much this book helped me to cope and to understand. My Mom, who was very close to my wife, reads it almost every night before bed. I pray that A Love Eternal reaches all who have lost a loved one, all who are suffering the heartache and grief that I now know, for it carries the greatest blessing that anyone could ever desire-hope. Thank you so much and God bless you.

This review is from: A Love Eternal (Paperback)
A Love Eternal touched, and helped to heal, some very deep recesses of my soul. Many of the trials, experiences and feelings with which this book deals were particularly relevant to me. This work is truly inspirational and a very real comfort to those of us who have been parted from our loved ones.

Love shines eternal.,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Love Eternal (Paperback)
A Love Eternal is one of those rare volumes of which one never tires. A hauntingly beautiful work, it bespeaks the power of love as it shines forth the light of hope into the darkest, deepest grave; transporting the reader to that place where peace and serenity reign supreme. A journey through the darkest despair to the brilliance and assurance of hope realized.
