A morte em si já constitui um grande tabu no mundo ocidental. O mesmo se pode dizer do luto, sobretudo quando ele não é visto como tal – são as chamadas perdas simbólicas e/ou ambíguas.

Dividida em quatro partes – "Os lutos do ser", "Os lutos do estar", "Os lutos do cuidar" e "Engajamento social: do silêncio à ação" –, a obra conta ainda com um posfácio sobre a pandemia de Covid‑19, que varreu o mundo e continua assolando o Brasil.
