Summary of Sarah Krasnostein's The Believer - E-book - ePub

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The death doula is a trained professional who provides emotional, physical, and educational support to families before, during, and after the death of a loved one. #2 Annie is a professional mediator who helps clients find solutions to their problems. She is highly trained and has to be able to support herself if she is to continue providing this type of service.
She is a perpetual intimate stranger. #3 Annie's interest in dying and death is not morbid, but rather just lacking in discussion. She was raised by her mother and sister after her parents split up when she was six months old, and she remembers being left in the dark about what was going to happen next. #4 The difference between life and the story of a life is that life is full of details and stories, while the story of a life is just a narrative.
Annie's sister did not know who she was for a long time, and a rift developed between them as a result.
