Resumen del Editor

Bloomsbury presents You Are Not Alone by Cariad Lloyd.

Welcome to the club.

I’m still here now, all these years later. You don’t leave once you’ve joined; it’s a life membership. Grief eases and changes and returns but it never disappears.

But you will be okay. Somehow you will be.

When Cariad was just fifteen, her dad died. She became the person-whose-dad-had-died; a mess of emotions and questions; a grief-mess.

Years later, she began trying to unravel this tightly wound grief. What had happened? What effect had it all had on who she was? She started Griefcast, the podcast that talks openly, honestly and at times cheerfully about life’s most difficult moment: its end.

Inspired by her own grief mistakes and lessons, and from the profound and witty insights from her incredible guests – including Philippa Perry, Reverend Richard Coles, Isabel Allende, Nish Kumar and Marian Keyes – Cariad provides a road map for all of us. For anybody who has felt lost in grief, who wants to help someone struggling, or just wants to understand this life a little better. You are not alone.

This audiobook was updated in January 2023.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"We do not talk enough about grief. Often, it is a lonely path. Cariad Lloyd has made it her life's work to make us feel less alone, like we belong to a club, like our grief is both collective and individual, that there is no right way to remember those no longer with us, and that there is great comfort in talking about grief and death. Told with humanity, humour and honesty, this is a book for all of us, because we will all experience grief at some point in our lives, and this book will make us feel less alone." (Dr Nikesh Shukla)

"Stunning... This is a necessary book for all of us, those new to grief, the old hands, or the simply curious to understand. Even though it is about death, it’s a guide book to life." (Aisling Bea)

"It is the secret desire of many artists to make themselves useful and Cariad has achieved just that. A wise, warm and important book."(Robert Webb)

With Cariad, you feel like you are not alone

Cariad gives a true and honest account of how life, death and grief feels. Her insights are not the theoretical, hypothetical or academic kind but those earned from years of thinking, talking and learning from the real life experiences of herself and others. And they are more valuable for being so. This book will be a great comfort to the members of the club that no-one wants to be in, but which we will all join one day.
