It's a book that will help to soothe an aching heart and assure its readers that they're not alone.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"I devoured <i>A Manual for Heartache</i> in one sitting . . . a kind, honest and wise book about how to make a friend of sadness." --Rachel Joyce, author, <i>The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry </i></p><br><br>"A book that could change the life of someone whose hands it finds its way into at the right moment. I wish I could go back and give it to my younger self at various points in my own life. A copy should be issued to every teenager in school . . . It delivers that most important of messages: You are not alone." --Alice Adams, author, <i>Invincible Summer</i><br><br>"In clear and warm fashion, Rentzenbrink has written a lovely, simple book about how to cope with life's bumps and shocks and sadnesses. There is a lot of intelligence here--it brims with it--but it is presented in such an informal way that it always has the feel of someone sitting by your bedside, rather than standing behind a lectern. . . . One of her tips, as an avid book lover, is to read "gentle, comforting, funny things" and that is what she herself is offering here. Not just a comfort in the advice she offers, but in the reassuring way she is choosing to offer it." --<i>Guardian</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Cathy Rentzenbrink</b> is a journalist and the author of the memoir <i>The Last Act of Love</i>, which was shortlisted for the Wellcome Book Prize.
