From Grief to Grace Denise Greenaway

How do you say good bye to your beloved who has left this world? How long the mourning? Australian psychologist and author takes you with her on her search for answers: from Australia to Italy and Bali, Indonesia. Guided by Maria, a kitchen goddess and Madonna worshipper, Denise delves into the Italian culture of food, wine, family and religious traditions seeped in mourning and grief: Rome, Assisi, Venice; saints, sinners, nuns, priests, beggars and passing strangers. Every one and every place has something to offer. In Bali, Island of the Gods, she meets Kadek, a young woman who teaches her to reach the beyond. High up in the lush, tropical mountains of Ubud, where the spiritual realms are closest to Earth, her prayers are answered.
