The Coffin Makers - Heather Corbally Bryant

. .

Résumé :
In The Coffin Makers, Heather Bryant Jordan turns a close and penetrating look at the unfolding daily experience of living through a pandemic. By turns elegiac, melancholic and hopeful, she explores the bonds of family, the horrors of loss, and the solace of children and nature as the seasons turn and we come to grips with experiencing the unthinkable.
