Shades of Grief: A Memoir

By Susan L. Williams

Shades of Grief recounts a unique personal odyssey following an ill-fated airplane flight, in which the author's husband, the pilot, and three of his closest friends were killed upon take off.Adrift in grief, and without faith in the "eternal hereafter," Susan's journey led her through various shades of darkness and finally into a light of understanding.Along the way, she listened to the Buddhist monks chant to the deity Quan Yin, stood on historic battle fields, listened in isolation for the binary beat, screamed her heart out while acting on stage, visited psychics and came to wear the garb of the Crone.These were a few of the many experiences she experienced on her pilgrimage through the heart of sorrow. Susan's journey led her on a path of discovery where she eventually found healing and peace. With a poignant voice and a humorous outlook Susan Williams shares her journey as she attempts to come to grips with one of life's greatest mysteries.
