Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - The Void: How I Learned to Live Again After Losing the Only Person Who Never LeftThere's a kind of grief that doesn't look like grief. No breakdowns anyone can see. No tears in public. Just a man going through the motions of a life that looks fine on the outside while feeling completely empty on the inside. I know because I lived it. That's the void.I was still a kid when my mother was diagnosed with ALS, and still a kid when I became her caretaker, long before I even had words for what that meant. When she passed, the loss didn't hit all at once. It hollowed me out slowly over ten years, until 'fine' became a mask I wore so well I almost believed it myself.This book is what happened after the world moved on and I was still standing in the wreckage, pretending I wasn't. It's about being a Black man in America who was never given permission to fall apart, and what it costs to hold everything together for a decade. It's about the moment I realized the person I loved most was starting to feel like a memory instead of my mother. And it's about the slow, unglamorous work of learning to feel something again.I'm not a therapist and I'm not writing this as some expert looking in from the outside.
