Here is what others are saying about the book:
Praise for Blowing on Embers: Stories for Hard Times
"This book deepens our understanding of the creative power of narrative for finding a way through problems and even catastrophes. Psychotherapists will strengthen their practice by reading it, but it is also a book to pass on to friends or clients going through difficult periods -- or simply to read and hold in memory as a resource for the unknown future." Mary Catherine Bateson, author of Composing a Life and Willing to Learn: Passages of Personal Discovery.
“Bravo! A hard-to-put-down book about how to live with hard times. As if we were sitting around a campfire, listening to others tell their stories, we learn that indeed, happiness exists side-by-side with pain.”
Pauline Boss, author of Loss, Trauma and Resilience, and Ambiguous Loss.
“Pulleyblank Coffey reveals how wisdom is dispersed throughout a network of people. She shows through her stories how we can accrue the world’s knowledge if there is a listener nearby who asks good questions while blowing on the embers of our experience.”
James Griffith, M.D. author with Griffith ME: The Body Speaks: Therapeutic Dialogues for Mind/Body Problems and Engaging the Sacred in Psychotherapy: How to Talk with People about their Spiritual Lives.
“This is a wonderful and inspirational book. Affirming the resilience of the human spirit, Pulleyblank Coffey is masterful in describing and bringing forward the essence of the detailed stories of remarkable women coming through some of life’s greatest challenges. It is a terrific resource for all of us – women, men, lay persons, and professionals.”
John S. Rolland, M.D. author of Families, Illness, & Disability: An Integrative Treatment Model.
“The voices in Blowing on Embers are those of women who have faced enormous adversities and have found ways of living with them. Their voices are brought together so that we learn from them how to live with loss, and grief, and hope for the future.” Joan Berzoff, co-editor of Living with Dying: Handbook for End-of-Life Care Practitioners.
I'll be back on my blog on November 1st. Let me hear from you if there is something that you'd like to post and use my blog vacation to check out some of the earlier posts.
