“To Begin Again” [I'm not recalling the author-for shame], written by the first Conservative woman rabbi- a friend of a brilliant, self-effacing young rabbi hereabouts.
She deals with all the thorny questions we ask when terrible things happen.
I read this at my mothers’ bedside years ago [after she had open heart surgery, and I was at the bedside round the clock], and gave it to a dear friend [a magnificent woman who works for WGBH and became an Episcopalian Minister late in life]who is also a hospital chaplain.

I’m also going to send you some psalms I think you’ll love !

I particularly love this book as it was a gift from a friend. I felt I had to get into it again to glean more meaning.

The books are intense, yes.
Worthwhile.
Because she has lived a real life, a very full one, her words echo more truth for me.
