Book excerpt: The good. The bad. The glamorous. Grieve Outside the Box is a book that doesn't take itself too seriously (thank God), a refreshingly funny guidebook to death and grief that is like taking a long walk with your best friend, or having the most tender cup of tea you'll ever have at exactly the right moment with someone who gets it. Elena Box is our fairy death mother in this process, igniting a blazing flame through piss-your-pants stories and comical revelations during the world-bending experience of losing someone you deeply love. Topics are both inspirational (it's time to take your Griefcation® and practical (how to deal with vultures who make your experience all about them).Box's direct experience of losing her father in her early 20's and having no guidance gave way to this work of comedic devotion, a seminal book for this generation who have little else but dusty true-isms and feel-good philosophies to choose from when death comes to their door. Box's work is a take-me-everywhere friend that you'll cry with, laugh with, scheme with. Dream with.With supporting roles by Sir Ian McKellan and zen-teachers in the form of Peruvian Mountains, Grieve Outside the Box pairs teachable and instructional moments with A-Z exercises you can do yourself (or with the grim reaper). Be forewarned: a devil-may-care jouissance may be the result of reading this game-changing work.

Book excerpt: "Excellent and simple and as clear as a needed glass of water in the desert. I cannot think of a better companion for our current time." --Katy Butler, New York Times bestselling author of The Art of Dying Well All of us experience loss. Some of us have lost a spouse, a child, a parent, a beloved pet, a dear friend, or a neighbor. In the pandemic, we have lost hundreds of thousands of lives in the US and around the world. Many of us have lost our livelihoods. All of us have lost our familiar routines and textures of work, family, and community. And the losses are not over. Opening to Grief is a companion to this tender time. With the demeanor and tone of a loving friend, the authors offer an invitation to grieve fully, to turn toward your emotions and experiences however they arise, and to follow your own path toward healing. The book explores the deep truth that grief and love are richly intertwined. Because we love, we grieve. And when we fully feel our sorrow, we open to loving ourselves and other beings more deeply.
