A Life Undone, A Father’s Journey Through Loss - Barry Kluger Thursday, May 6, 2010

When a parent has to bury a child, there is no manual, no guide, no 12-step program. A Life Undone, A Father’s Journey Through Loss is the story of Barry Kluger’s voyage through this most horrific experience, battling unimaginable grief to find a new way of life. In A Life Undone, Kluger shares his struggle after losing his 18-year old daughter Erica, his only child. A Life Undone is not a how-to book; it is as much a celebration of love and life, as it is a view into one man’s parenting and grieving. Readers get a road map—not a guide—via Kluger’s thoughts, emails and recollections, on how to adjust to life’s inevitable changes, from the miniscule to the monumental. This book delves into Kluger’s path to adjusting as a new father, as a divorced parent, a remarried man and finally, as a grieving dad. A Life Undone recounts one man’s grieving process, but more importantly, it is a celebration of love and life.
