{"product_id":"the-night-lake-a-young-priest-maps-the-topography-of-grief","title":"The Night Lake: A Young Priest Maps the Topography of Grief","description":"Called \"such a sad, tough story, but finally so life-affirming, filled with spirit and love\" by Anne Lamott, this is a raw and intensely affecting memoir by a young priest about loss of a child, its grief and its aftermath, and the hard-won joy that can follow.\n\nLiz Tichenor has taken her newborn son, five weeks old, to the doctor, from a cabin on the shores of Lake Tahoe. She is sent home to her husband and two-year-old daughter with the baby, who is pronounced \"fine\" by an urgent care physician. Six hours later, the baby dies in their bed. Less than a year and a half before, Tichenor's mother jumped from a building and killed herself after a long struggle with alcoholism. As a very young Episcopal priest, Tichenor has to \"preach the Good News,\" to find faith where there is no hope, but she realizes these terrible parts of her own life will join her in the pulpit.\n\nThe Night Lake is the story of finding a way forward through tragedies that seem like they might be beyond surviving and of carving out space for the slow labor of learning to live again, in grief.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1640095330\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1640095330.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Tichenor, Liz\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
