Editorial Reviews
Lutheran Libraries
"Recognized for the depth and warmth of his spiritual communication, Father Nouwen grapples with death, a particular death-his mother's....An intelligent, loving letter to a Christian facing a powerful enemy, death."

America
"What Nouwen has come to realize is that a battle against death is a natural Christian rejection, like Jesus' in the garden, of the cruel absurdity of being cut off from life. Only the promise of the Resurrection, the unimpeachable guarantee that love is stronger than death, can make that separation tolerable, even graceful."
