The Howl Within

By: Jessica Aidley

Narrated by: Jessica Aidley

The howl within comes not from broken bones, or bruiséd skin; it comes from being torn in two, in the losing of you.

Jessica’s poems were written as a direct response to the sudden death of her husband four weeks before she was ordained priest in the Church of England, and many reflect her faith.

These honest poems chart her journey from the first unbelieving days through anger, pain, withdrawal, survival, and eventual acceptance, and even joy. These poems express many aspects of day-to-day grief which will resonate with those who have lost a loved one.

The poems in the audiobook are also available in two printed versions: one with color plates, and one with black-and-white plates.

Many of these poems are already being used by those helping others in their grief and shared with those who are grieving.

These poems show those who are grieving that they are not alone, and that there is hope for love, life, and laughter once again.
