An unflinching poetry collection for anyone carrying loss. Grief: The Spoken Words gives language to the ache we are taught to hide, brief, resonant pieces you can open anywhere and feel seen. Written by Alexis Bonavitacola, PhD, with artwork by renowned illustrator Bil Donovan, it is a gentle companion to Holding On After Goodbye: A Memoir of Sibling Loss, Carrying Grief, and What Endures.Born from the sudden death of the author’s brother, these poems move through shock, longing, and the everyday places where grief lives, at red lights, in quiet kitchens, and in the space between sleeping and waking. These poems speak to the long after, when the shelf life of other people’s timelines has passed, but the ache remains. The collection stands on its own, deepening a chorus of memory, love, and endurance.If you have ever wanted someone to ask, 'Does it still hurt? Then I am still listening,' this book does exactly that. Keep it on a nightstand, offer it to a friend, or read it aloud. The poems are spacious and accessible, inviting you to speak your loved one’s name and find steadier ground, one page at a time. Includes evocative illustrations that mirror the tenderness on the page.Add Grief: The Spoken Words to your cart today, for yourself or someone you love, and keep it close for the moments when language feels far away.
